Books a manual journal entry. Debits must equal credits, and only accounts Bokio supports are accepted; look them up with list_accounts. The entry goes straight into the books. By default you confirm each call; you can switch that off for this tool.
Parameters

|---|---|---|
| date string required | string | YYYY-MM-DD. |
| title string required | string | Title of the entry. |
| items array required | array | Rows with account, debit and credit; the sums of debit and credit must be equal. |
