# List business-case templates available to the authenticated company, grouped by financial-year period.

`GET /core/latest/accounting/companies/current/business-case-templates`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://api.klara.ch`
- URL: `https://api.klara.ch/core/latest/accounting/companies/current/business-case-templates`
- Auth: one of:
  - API key in header `X-API-KEY`
  - HTTP bearer

> **Deprecated.**

This operation remains available until <b>2027-08-14</b> and is removed after that date. Use <code>GET /core/v1/accounting/companies/current/business-case-templates</code> instead.<br/><br/>Returns the manual-journal categories ("business-case templates") the caller's company is allowed to book against, grouped by the financial-year period in which they are valid. Each period carries its <code>periodFrom</code> / <code>periodTo</code>, the company's <code>legalForm</code> and active VAT regime, and the templates that pass the legal-form / VAT-regime filters for that period. Templates are sorted by <code>code</code>; the <code>display</code> field is pre-translated using the <code>Accept-Language</code> header and the full per-language map is also returned in <code>i18n</code> / <code>keywordI18ns</code>. Tenant and company are derived from the bearer token — there are no path or query parameters to override them. The endpoint is a pure read — idempotent, no side effects. The caller must hold the <code>ACCOUNTING</code> permission on the company in scope.
