Delete a ledger entry
Scope: accounting:daily-ledger.write https://api.alladdin.com/api/v2/ledger-entries/{ledgerEntryId}
Permanently deletes a ledger entry (asiento contable) — the journal entry with all its debit/credit lines. This action cannot be undone.
Use when the user wants to remove or cancel an accounting entry (eliminar asiento, borrar asiento contable). Deletion is blocked if the entry is linked to a non-cancelled approved document, has reconciled (dotted) lines, falls in a locked accounting period, or is a closing/regularization entry of an already-closed fiscal year.
