Process Transfers for a single Order

As of October 8th 2025: Duplicate transfer requests now return a 409 Conflict error instead of a 2XX response with an empty result.

When attempting to process transfers for orders that have already had their distributions settled, the API returns the following error:

{
  "error": "transfer_already_processed",
  "error_code": "4461",
  "error_message": "All transfers for this entity have already been processed."
}
