### Code refactoring improvements
* Validation Separation: Moved validation logic to dedicated InvoiceValidator
* Process Decomposition: Split payment processing into discrete, focused methods
* Interface Contracts: Established clear interfaces for all dependencies
* Method Simplification: Broke down monolithic ProcessPayment into single-responsibility methods
* Control Flow: Eliminated nested conditionals for linear readability
* Error Handling: Implemented structured exception handling with code safety
* Added logging for issues investigation

* The string return type in ProcessPayment is problematic as it forces client to parse unstructured messages;
* a strongly-typed response object would provide clearer contracts and better programmability.


* Client side, before:

// Returns unstructured string messages

string result = _invoiceService.ProcessPayment(payment);

// Client must parse strings to determine outcome. How to do that efficiently?

* Client side, after:

PaymentResult result = _invoiceService.ProcessPayment(payment);

if (result.IsSuccess)
{
switch (result.Code)
{
case ResultCode.FinalPaymentComplete:
_receiptService.Generate(invoice, result.AmountPaid);
_auditService.LogPaymentComplete(result.TransactionId);
break;

case ResultCode.PartialPaymentComplete:
_paymentTracker.ScheduleFollowUp(
result.RemainingAmount,
DateTime.Now.AddDays(7));
break;

case ResultCode.NoPaymentNeeded:
case ResultCode.AlreadyFullyPaid:
// Handle these cases as needed
break;
}
}
else
{
// Handle failure scenarios
switch (result.Code)
{
case ResultCode.InvoiceNotFound:
_alertService.TriggerSupportAlert(result);
break;

case ResultCode.PaymentExceedsRemainingAmount:
case ResultCode.PaymentExceedsInvoiceAmount:
// Handle these cases as needed
break;

case ResultCode.ProcessingError:
case ResultCode.InvalidInvoiceState:
// Handle these cases as needed
break;

default:
_alertService.TriggerSupportAlert(result);
break;
}
}

*** Architectural improvements
* Proper layering with domain entities, services, and persistence
* Dependency injection for better testability
* Clear boundaries between components
* Each class has a single responsibility, easier to modify or extend behavior. Clear separation makes it easier to add new features.


*** Suggested Business Object Enhancements (not implemented):


* Invoice/Payment Data Enrichment
* Currently missing critical transaction details: Payer/recipient identification (names, contact info)
* Banking/payment details
* Transaction references
