Delete category

Delete a category. Refused with 409 while any transaction is still categorized under it or any planned transaction still uses it, and with 400 for system categories, which SaaSFlow manages. To retire a category that is in use, merge it into another one instead.

Retrieve category

Retrieve a single category by id. Returns 404 if the category does not exist or belongs to another company.

Update category

Update a category's name, emoji, `plTypes`, or order. Only the fields you send change. Narrowing `plTypes` does not rewrite transactions already categorized under the removed P&L type, so check reporting after a change like that.
