  -  Sample data for each DocType
  -  Single vs Standard vs Submittable types identified

  API Endpoint Patterns for Each DocType:

  # Standard DocTypes (e.g., Item, Customer)
  GET    /api/resource/{DocType}          # List all
  GET    /api/resource/{DocType}/{name}   # Get single
  POST   /api/resource/{DocType}          # Create new
  PUT    /api/resource/{DocType}/{name}   # Update
  DELETE /api/resource/{DocType}/{name}   # Delete

  # Single DocTypes (e.g., System Settings)
  GET    /api/resource/{DocType}/{DocType}  # Get singleton

  Sample DocTypes by Category:

  Standard DocTypes (most common):
  - Customer, Item, Sales Order, Purchase Order, etc.

  Single DocTypes (singletons):
  - System Settings, Accounts Settings, Stock Settings, etc.

  Submittable DocTypes (workflow):
