URI
/api/v9/applicants/ID/invoices/ID

GDPR information

Due to GDPR regulations, it is possible to delete applicants from the system, for example with the Right to be forgotten tool, batch purge (by academic term) or with an individual applicant record deletion.

However, in order to not destroy accounting records, invoices are the only data that is preserved after an applicant record is destroyed. To achieve this, invoices are detached from the applicant records, losing this association. This is why in the admin UI they are distinctive with a gray anonymous icon and also why in the API response the applicant and application field is set to null.

The response field collected designates that the invoice has been collected in full. Partial collections will not set this field, also collections in excess will reset this field back to null. In addition, it is possible to edit the invoice after the payment — if the invoice amount is changed as a result, this field will also be cleared. In short, this field indicates whether the invoice is currently paid in full. The only exception is 0 invoices, in which case the field value is undefined.
