-Loan Transitions ... approve etc - possible done CHECK AFTER
-    if  "eventLocalDate" parameter added with string date then instead of parameter not supported msg do get jackson conversion exception. -
-"JsonMappingException: Invalid format: &quot;07 June 2012&quot; " KW might do jackson conversion exception to json.
-
-    approve loan (already closed) with approval date before submitted date - now fine and shows json msg but
-    if approve loan (already closed) with approval date after submitted date - DataIntegrityViolationException: Column 'loan_status_id' cannot be null;
-
-
-describe waiver CHECK RULES AFTER - good but maybe there should be an amount pass in ? it let me waive 12 when there was only 10 left...
-
-when creating loan: if arrearsTolerance left there is an exception - for the other mandatory fields... just a json msg saying it is mandatory (OK).
-
-
-
-
-
-
-BUT NOT FOR NOWS
-should be able to get clients by branch as well
-also get loans of different status's by branch etc
-list of loan transactions not available (except in summary - presume repayments section has repayments and waivers and adjusts)
