The operating problem
What needs to become clearer
A business may understand operating expense: meaning for a small business in principle and still handle it inconsistently while turning daily records into an owner review that leads to a decision. The useful question is who owns operating expense, when it is recorded and how an exception is approved.
Recommended approach
Start with the workflow, then test the software
Map operating expense on paper before configuration. Ask the responsible operator to define the question first, verify the source entries and compare the same reporting period, while a second person checks the result against a dated report, exception list, responsible reviewer and recorded follow-up action.
