Transaction Types are independent from one another. However, there is a pattern that aligns with the API method endpoints (operations) associated with each one. There will be a create, read, update, and delete Transaction Type for each API that aligns with the associated ability to perform that action on the target of the API. Some APIs may not expose all endpoints, in which case there may not be a Create, Read, Update, and Delete Transaction Type exposed for that API.

Transaction Types with 'Create' in the name or description are aligned with the ability to create the entity referenced by the Transaction Type description, using the underlying API. Likewise, Read, Update, and Delete align with the ability to Read, Update, or Delete items using the underlying API.

This allows fine grained control across the create, read, update and delete functions performed by Users and external systems through user interfaces or REST calls.
