What is the need / problem
- Mary/Shannon use some tool for their book-keeping and needs to get precise and accurate data from the OFN about their sales.
- Today some operations are not properly tracked so there is no data, so they can’t be exported and Mary/Shannon are not able to do accurate accounting (ex: bought 10kg carrots to Fred on Monday 10th > accounting line, Fred only delivers 8kg Wed 12th > another adjustment accounting line (we don’t have these data currently), Fred invoices on Friday 14th > another accounting line). The orginal info is lost today and changes are not tracked so info can’t be integrated into accounting.
- Today data export have been set up only to meet Xero accounting package requirements, so if Mary doesn’t use Xero she needs to adjust the csv
- Mary needs full cost breakdown so she needs seperate information about the original product cost, her markup, shipping fees, payment method fees, etc.
Who does it impact
Mary/Shannon
What is the current impact of this problem
- Hubs manage the changes directly into external accounting tools and don’t apply them into OFN so we lose track within OFN.
- Hubs do as they can to manage their account as accurately as possible but there are some error risks.
What is the benefit in focusing on this
- Enable hubs to manage accurately their accounting.
- Encourage the use of OFN from end-to-end so that we have changes info within OFN.
