@galbus - Great question! Expenses created via the API will always be created as cash transactions, but they can be marked as non-reimbursable and exported to your QuickBooks Integration as non-reimbursable expenses.

but why is this not a field that can be pushed in via the api? not all transactions are cash. it's a big assumption to make

We only mark expenses imported directly from a bank (via direct connect or commercial card feed) as credit card expenses because we can trust the information from the financial institution as being legitimate business expenses. These credit card expenses are automatically merged with receipt images uploaded by the employee, so we have to be confident that they aren't fraudulent expenses being passed off as business expenses.
