Get my expense totals for a day

Returns the caller's number of expenses and their total incl. / excl. VAT, in the system currency, for one day.

A day summary for a "my expenses" view: how many expense rows the CALLER registered with that purchase date and their sum including and excluding VAT, converted to the account's system (base) currency at each expense's save-time rate. Counts both employee expenses and project expenses the caller registered. Always the caller — there is no user parameter.

Use it to:

Mobile time/expense client: show 'today: 3 expenses, 1,250.00 DKK' next to the day's time registrations

Not for:

The expense lines themselves — GET /v1/employee-expense
Reimbursement amounts in the employee's currency — GET /v1/employee-expense-financial-data/get-all-time-total (legal-entity currency, personal expenses only)
Another user's totals — not supported

Behaviour:

Idempotent.
Safe to retry.
Changes are visible to the next read immediately.

Next: GET /v1/employee-expense

Bearer Token

OAuth 2.0 bearer token, sent as Authorization: Bearer <token>. JWT and reference tokens are both accepted. The token must carry the required scope (default tlp). The token's sub claim is the acting user. A token WITHOUT sub (client-credentials) acts as the system service user. If the sub user cannot log in (inactive, locked, deleted), the request is rejected with 401 — it is no longer let through without a user.

query

datestring

Required

The day (the time part is ignored for the day selection). An expense counts when its stored purchase date is EXACTLY midnight of that day — expenses saved with a time part are missed. Omitted → 404. Filters on ProjectExpenseRead.PurchaseDate (eq). Date only — no time component.

Expense totals of the CALLER — a count and a sum incl. / excl. VAT — for one day (by-date, and each day of by-date-range) or for an optional period (all-time total). Built for a "my expenses" summary in a mobile/time client. Not a per-expense list (use GET /v1/employee-expense) and not usable for another user.
