Two follow-ups to the Services reorg that landed in 6d1816bd.
**Documents → Document** (singular). Documents/ was the only plural subdir in app/Services/ — every other bucket (Company, Mail, Module, Pdf, Storage, Update, ExchangeRate) was singular. Renaming to Document/ normalizes the whole tree.
**ExchangeRate → Integrations/ExchangeRate**. Introduces Integrations/ as an umbrella for external-service adapter subsystems. Exchange rate providers move in first; AI providers, payment gateways, and any other driver-pattern integrations land as sibling subdirs (Integrations/Ai/, Integrations/Payment/) without another reorg. Integrations/ was chosen over Providers/ to avoid conceptual collision with Laravel's app/Providers/ — 'check the providers' shouldn't be ambiguous.
17 files moved, 21 consumer files rewritten to point at the new namespaces via literal-string replacement (same approach as the previous reorg). 350 tests pass, Pint clean.
The app/Services/ directory had grown into 22 flat files at the root plus 7 uneven subdirectories — finding anything required scrolling through an alphabetical mix of small CRUD services, infrastructure drivers, and install-time utilities. This commit groups services by domain, folds Backup into a new Storage namespace, and moves framework-infrastructure and install-time helpers out of Services and into Support where they belong.
New Services layout: Documents/ (Invoice, Estimate, RecurringInvoice, Payment, Expense, Transaction, DocumentItem, SerialNumber, Currency — matches the 'Documents' navigation group); Company/ (Company, Member, Invitation); Mail/ (MailConfiguration, CompanyMailConfig); Storage/ (FileDisk, plus Backup folded in). ExchangeRateProviderService moves next to its drivers in ExchangeRate/; FontService moves into Pdf/ where it belongs. CustomerService, ItemService, CustomFieldService stay at the Services root as standalone single-file domains.
Moves to Support/: Hashids/ (library wrapper — not business logic); Setup/ (one-shot install-time utilities — stateless helpers); Pdf/ (ImageUtils, PdfTemplateUtils, plus the existing PdfHtmlSanitizer consolidated into the same subdir). These are all framework infrastructure and stateless utilities — the 'service' label never really fit them.
Namespace declarations in 29 moved files updated to match new paths. 62 consumer files (controllers, other services, tests, database factories, seeders, routes, bootstrap/providers.php) have their use statements rewritten via a literal-string replacement script — no regex meant no risk of half-matching. Three Documents services needed an explicit 'use App\Services\Mail\CompanyMailConfigService' added because the same-namespace short reference they relied on no longer resolves after the split.
Verified: composer dump-autoload, 350 tests pass (850 assertions), vendor/bin/pint clean, npm run build succeeds.
Relocate all 14 files from the catch-all app/Space namespace into proper
locations: data providers to Support/Formatters, installation utilities to
Services/Installation, PDF utils to Services/Pdf, module/update classes to
Services/Module and Services/Update, SiteApi trait to Traits, and helpers
to Support.
Extract ~1,400 lines of business logic from 8 fat models (Invoice, Payment,
Estimate, RecurringInvoice, Company, Customer, Expense, User) into 9 new
service classes with constructor injection. Controllers now depend on
services instead of calling static model methods. Shared item/tax creation
logic consolidated into DocumentItemService.
* Convert string references to `::class`
PHP 5.5.9 adds the new static `class` property which provides the fully qualified class name. This is preferred over using strings for class names since the `class` property references are checked by PHP.
* Use Faker methods
Accessing Faker properties was deprecated in Faker 1.14.
* Convert route options to fluent methods
Laravel 8 adopts the tuple syntax for controller actions. Since the old options array is incompatible with this syntax, Shift converted them to use modern, fluent methods.
* Adopt class based routes
* Remove default `app` files
* Shift core files
* Streamline config files
* Set new `ENV` variables
* Default new `bootstrap/app.php`
* Re-register HTTP middleware
* Consolidate service providers
* Re-register service providers
* Re-register routes
* Re-register scheduled commands
* Bump Composer dependencies
* Use `<env>` tags for configuration
`<env>` tags have a lower precedence than system environment variables making it easier to overwrite PHPUnit configuration values in additional environments, such a CI.

* Adopt anonymous migrations
* Rename `password_resets` table
* Convert `$casts` property to method

* Mark base controller as `abstract`
* Remove `CreatesApplication` testing trait
* Shift cleanup
* Fix shift first issues
* Updating Rules for laravel 11, sanctum config and pint
* Fix Carbon issue on dashboard
* Temporary fix for tests while migration is issue fixed on laravel side
* Carbon needs numerical values, not strings
* Minimum php version
* Fix domain installation step not fetching the correct company_id
* Fix Role Policy wasn't properly registered
