Category Edit Restriction with Period Feature for Accrued Prepaid Receipts

When the period feature is used for Accrue Expenses for Prepaid Receipts, and the invoice is verified/Ready to pay or Approved, Docyt won’t allow the user to edit the categories again. It will give users an error (“Category edit is not allowed when the period feature is used.”) as shown in the visual below.

a) Error- If the invoice has already been verified
