# Create a sales order or quote

```

- API version: v2

- Section: Sales › [Sales orders](https://developer.yoprint.com/reference/sales-orders.md)

Creates a new draft sales order or quote. The draft already has its order number (`scoped_id`, such as SO1001) but sends nothing to the customer; add jobs and lines, then publish it.

Set `object_type` to `quote` for a quote (or the older `quote: true`). Without either you get a sales order.

The new draft takes its defaults from the team and the customer: today's issue date, the customer's (or team's) pricing group, payment term and warehouse, the customer's primary brand profile, the team's starting status, and due and production dates from the team's settings.

The order number (`scoped_id`) is the team's next number unless you send your own, and publishing keeps it.

Typical flow: create the draft, add jobs (`v2/sales_order/{hash_id}/job`), add line items, then publish. The answer is the order: its `id` and `unique_key`, `scoped_id` (the number people see), `name`, `object_type` (`sales_order` or `quote`), `internal_status` (`draft` until published), `status_id` and `status`, the customer and addresses, dates, notes, `is_rush`, pricing settings and totals. The value of the order's lines is `order_item_cart_total`. `invoiced_total`, `invoiced_order_item_subtotal`, `invoiced_shipment_subtotal`, `invoiced_tax_subtotal` and `invoiced_discount_subtotal` count only what has been **invoiced** (0 until the order has an invoice). They are **decimal pairs** (`{ "value": 850000, "dp": 4 }` is 85.00; always read `dp`). `paid_amount`, `calc_deposit_total` and `unallocated_amount` are in **thousandths** (`135000` is 135.00). `deposit_total` is a **percentage ×1000** (`50000` is 50%). `calc_subtotal`, `calc_discount`, `calc_tax` and `calc_total` are deprecated thousandths copies of the invoiced totals: they still return, but use the decimal pair fields instead.

## Permission

Needs the `create_order` permission (the team owner always has it). Quotes use the same permission.

## Business rules

- The team must have a default pricing group: "This team must have a default pricing group configured before creating an order or quote."
- `object_type` and `quote`, when both sent, must describe the same thing.
- A customer synced from Shopify can't be used: "Shopify customer cannot be used for native order or quote creation."
- Creating with `is_external: true` is refused for integrations.

## Side effects

- Creates a draft. No email, webhook or stock change happens until you publish.

## Path parameters

- `team_slug` (string, required): Your team slug, shown as Team ID next to your API key in Profile. Example `your-team`.

## Request body

Content type `application/json`, required.

Fields:

- `client_note` (string | null, optional): The Client Note, printed on documents the customer receives.
- `customer_id` (string, optional): The customer's `id`. Optional, but an order needs a customer before it can be published. An id that is not one of your customers is ignored.
- `customer_po_number` (string | null, optional): The customer's purchase order number.
- `object_type` (string, optional): `quote` for a quote; `sales_order` (the default) for a sales order. One of: `"sales_order"`, `"quote"`.
- `quote` (boolean, optional): Older way to ask for a quote. If you send both, they must agree.
- `scoped_id` (string, optional): Your own order number. Leave it out to get the team's next number.

### Example request

## Errors

- `401` The API key is missing or wrong (`unauthenticated`).
- `403` You are not allowed to do this. `api_access_not_in_plan`: your team's plan doesn't include API access (Pro and above, with an active subscription or trial), so every request answers this until the team upgrades. When your role lacks the permission the operation needs, the body is only `{"message": "Insufficient Permission"}`. Other refusals use the error envelope, with `unauthorized` or `user_is_not_authorized`.
  - When: The API key's role lacks `create_order`. Fix: Ask the team owner for permission to create orders.
- `404` Not found. `page_not_found`: the team slug is unknown, you are not a member of the team, or an id in the path is not one of this team's. `code: null`, with a message that starts "No query results for": there is no record with that id.
- `422` The request was refused and changed nothing. `validation_failed` lists what to fix in `error.fields`; other codes name a business rule, explained in `error.message`. A few checks answer with only `{"message": "..."}`. An operation that calls another service (a payment provider, a carrier, an accounting app) can answer `connect_timeout` ("Please retry again") when that service does not answer in time: the change may or may not have happened there, so read the record back before you retry.
  - When: The team has no default pricing group, `object_type` and `quote` disagree, or the customer comes from Shopify. Fix: Set a default pricing group in Settings, send matching values, or pick another customer.
  - When: `is_external: true`: "Cannot create external object from API." Fix: Leave `is_external` out.

## Notes

- The answer's `id` is the order's id for every other call. Save it.
- A new draft has no name; set one with Update.
- Change the customer of a draft later with the `change_customer` action, not with Update.
