This how-to covers the write operations for Chart of Accounts Sync: creating new Accounts, updating or unarchiving existing Accounts, and archiving Accounts that are no longer active in the Accounting System.

Run this after [How to Sync Accounts](/docs/current/how-tos/accounting-integrations/imports/accounts/how-to-sync-accounts), which covers fetching and matching accounts from both systems.

## Prerequisites

Before you begin:

* You have completed [How to Sync Accounts](/docs/current/how-tos/accounting-integrations/imports/accounts/how-to-sync-accounts) and determined what action is needed for each account
* Your integration is authenticated using one of the [supported authentication methods](/docs/current/integration-design/auth/integration-design-auth-overview#authentication-policy-overview)
* Your integration can call Pleo's Chart of Accounts API endpoints

## Scenario

This how-to continues from the [How to Sync Accounts](/docs/current/how-tos/accounting-integrations/imports/accounts/how-to-sync-accounts) scenario. After matching, the following actions are required:

| AS Account             | Pleo Account           | Action    |
| ---------------------- | ---------------------- | --------- |
| 1000 - Office Supplies | 1000 - Office Supplies | No action |
| 2000 - Travel          | 2000 - Travel          | Unarchive |
| 3000 - Software        | —                      | Create    |
| 4000 - Marketing       | 4000 - Advertising     | Update    |
| —                      | 5000 - Entertainment   | Archive   |

The diagram below shows where these operations fit in the full reconciliation loop.

<HowToCreateUpdateArchiveAccountsReconciliationDiagram />

## Steps

### 1. Create Accounts for New AS Entries

**API Endpoint**: POST [`/v1/chart-of-accounts`](/reference/accounts/create-a-new-account)

If an AS account has no matching Pleo Account, create a new Account.

**Example Pseudo:**

```pseudo theme={null}
if matchedAccount is null:
    newAccount.externalId = account.externalId
    newAccount.code       = account.code
    newAccount.name       = account.name
    newAccount.archived   = false
    POST newAccount to Pleo
```

#### Example Request

    ```bash theme={null}
    curl -X POST "https://external.staging.pleo.io/v1/chart-of-accounts" \

            "archived": false
          }'
    ```

<br />

<NoteCallout>
  If you have a large number of accounts to create, you can send up to 1000 in a single request using the batch endpoint. See [How to Create Multiple Accounts in a Single Request](/docs/current/how-tos/accounting-integrations/imports/accounts/how-to-batch-create-accounts).
</NoteCallout>

***

### 2. Unarchive or Update Existing Accounts

**API Endpoint**: PUT [`/v1/chart-of-accounts/{accountId}`](/reference/accounts/update-an-account)

If a matching Account is found:

* **AS account is active, Pleo Account is archived:** Unarchive by setting `archived: false` and update name and code if they differ.
* **AS account is active, Pleo Account name or code differs:** Update the Account to match the AS.
* **AS account is active, Pleo Account name and code match:** No action required.

**Example Pseudo:**

```pseudo theme={null}
if matchedAccount.archived == true:
    matchedAccount.archived = false
    matchedAccount.name     = account.name
    matchedAccount.code     = account.code
    PUT matchedAccount to Pleo

else if matchedAccount.name != account.name or matchedAccount.code != account.code:
    matchedAccount.name = account.name
    matchedAccount.code = account.code
    PUT matchedAccount to Pleo
```

### Unarchive

### 3. Archive Accounts with No Matching AS Entry

**API Endpoint**: PUT [`/v1/chart-of-accounts/{accountId}`](/reference/accounts/update-an-account)

If a Pleo Account is active but its corresponding AS account is no longer active (or does not exist), archive the Account.

Do not delete Accounts. Archiving is non-destructive and reversible.

**Example Pseudo:**

```pseudo theme={null}
activeASExternalIds = activeASAccounts.map(a => a.externalId)

for account in pleoAccounts where archived == false:
    if account.externalId not in activeASExternalIds:
        account.archived = true
        PUT account to Pleo
```

## Result

The table below recaps what happened to each Account across all steps.

| Account                | AS Status | Pleo State Before     | Action     | Final Pleo State |
| ---------------------- | --------- | --------------------- | ---------- | ---------------- |
| 1000 - Office Supplies | Active    | Active, matches       | No action  | Active           |
| 2000 - Travel          | Active    | Archived              | Unarchived | Active           |
| 3000 - Software        | Active    | Does not exist        | Created    | Active           |
| 4000 - Marketing       | Active    | Active, name differed | Updated    | Active           |
| 5000 - Entertainment   | Not in AS | Active                | Archived   | Archived         |

Pleo now reflects the current Chart of Accounts from the AS.
