Hi Bradley Bernard, I am trying to delete a friend. I confirmed that all debts have been settled and there is no more other group or personal debt left. The error message appears "Oops, something went wrong! This user has expense debt(s) so they can't be deleted yet!"
Does that mean I need to remove all the previous transactions before I delete the person?

Joures: Yep that is correct! Any user you want to delete must have NO relationships to any data: no groups, no expenses, (they can have friends), and cannot be signed up. This ensures data integrity in the system. I can do more here to "delete" the user and replace them with a placeholder user, but for now, this is how it's built out!

Allen Brouwer: Great observation! I check to make sure the user ins't involved in any groups, expenses, or debts, so they should be free to be deleted from everyone's friends list. You can only delete an account that hasn't signed up yet, so there are quite a few requirements to make it safe!
