Delete an expense entry by ID.
AI agents call delete_expense to permanently remove resources in Mycase — typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.
This tool permanently removes financial expense records from the law firm's MyCase account. Deletion is irreversible and cannot be undone. While not a direct financial transaction, destroying expense entries could obscure financial records, complicate accounting, or be used maliciously to erase evidence of transactions.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'delete_expense' and description 'Delete an expense entry by ID' explicitly use the verb 'delete', which removes data irreversibly.
