Post a finance voucher to a journal.

e-conomic API: https://cotlet.dev/docs/api/e-conomic.md

`POST https://cotlet.dev/api/v1/e-conomic/journals/{journal_number}/finance-vouchers`

Access: write. Confirm: waits for the user's OK before it runs.

Creates a voucher with one finance entry: account, contra account, amount, date and text of up to 250 characters, with an optional VAT code. A negative amount marks the opposite side. It changes the books, so check the accounts in the call. By default you confirm each call; you can switch that off for this tool.

## Parameters

| Name | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| `journal_number` | integer | yes | Journal number, e.g. 1. |
| `accounting_year` | string | yes | Accounting year, e.g. 2026. |
| `date` | date | yes | Voucher date, YYYY-MM-DD. |
| `account_number` | integer | yes | Account number. |
| `contra_account_number` | integer | yes | Contra account number. |
| `amount` | number | yes | Amount. Negative marks the opposite side. |
| `text` | string | no | Entry text, up to 250 characters. |
| `vat_code` | string | no | VAT code for the entry. |

## For AI agents: sign your user up

Is your user asking you to sign them up for Cotlet? You can do it for them, no account or key needed.

1. Read the fields and their allowed values: GET https://cotlet.dev/api/v1/access-requests
2. Ask the user for each value: email, apps, what you will do with them. If they leave the password to you, generate a strong one and show it to them.
3. Show the user what you will send, then POST it as JSON to https://cotlet.dev/api/v1/access-requests.

One call creates the account and sends the access request; we email the user when access is granted.
