The operating problem

What needs to become clearer

A business may understand write-off: meaning for a small business in principle and still handle it inconsistently while tracking customer receivables and supplier payables without losing the supporting transaction trail. The useful question is who owns write-off, when it is recorded and how an exception is approved.

Recommended approach

Start with the workflow, then test the software

Map write-off on paper before configuration. Ask the responsible operator to reconcile opening balances, define receipt allocation and assign a regular follow-up owner, while a second person checks the result against party statements, ageing review, receipt references and confirmed opening totals.

Implementation path
