## Usage Examples

### Creating a Time Entry
```python
from app.services import TimeTrackingService

service = TimeTrackingService()
result = service.start_timer(
    user_id=1,
    project_id=5,
    task_id=10
)
```

### Creating a Payment
```python
from app.services import PaymentService
from decimal import Decimal
from datetime import date

service = PaymentService()
result = service.create_payment(
    invoice_id=1,
    amount=Decimal('100.00'),
    payment_date=date.today(),
    received_by=1
)
```

### Using Pagination
```python
from app.utils.pagination import paginate_query

result = paginate_query(
    TimeEntry.query.filter_by(user_id=1),
    page=1,
    per_page=20
)
```

## Next Steps

### Immediate
1. Run database migration: `flask db upgrade`
2. Review refactored route examples
3. Start migrating existing routes

### Short Term
1. Add more comprehensive tests
2. Migrate remaining routes
3. Add API documentation (Swagger/OpenAPI)

### Long Term
1. Add Redis caching
2. Implement full event bus
3. Add more export formats (PDF, Excel)
4. Enhance search with full-text search
