List all expense types with their legal entity
Lists expense types of every legal entity (or one), each with its legal entity, optionally filtered by active / inactive.
The account-wide expense-type catalogue for integrations that serve several legal entities: every type with its LegalEntityId / LegalEntityName (-1 / "AllLegalEntities" = shared). legalEntityId narrows to one legal entity plus the shared types, but only when the CurrencyMatrix feature is on — otherwise it is ignored. Ordered by name, paged; TotalRecord over-counts.
Use it to:
- ERP / receipt-capture integration building a per-legal-entity mapping of cost categories to ExpenseTypeID
- Choosing a valid ExpenseTypeID for a project expense: use a type of the PROJECT's legal entity
Not for:
- The caller's own picker list —
GET /v1/expense-type/{status}(already scoped to the caller's legal entity)
Behaviour:
- Idempotent.
- Safe to retry.
- Changes are visible to the next read immediately.
Call first: GET /v1/legal-entity
Next: POST /v1/project-expense, POST /v1/employee-expense
See also: GET /v1/expense-type/{status}
