SOP — Monthly Close

Cadence: first few days of the new month, for the month just ended.

Steps

1. Completeness — every #sales-order that was paid has a matching #transaction; every #transaction is reconciled: true.
2. Total the buckets from the Transactions Ledger + Expenses bases:
   • Revenue = sum of sales-revenue in.
   • COGS = stock shipped this month (from cogs transactions / costing).
   • Opex = software + marketing + shipping + payment-fees + domain + phone + misc.
3. Compute net = revenue − COGS − opex; record ending cash.
4. Create the #month-close note YYYY-MM with revenue / cogs / opex / net / cash_end.
5. Refresh margins — reconcile #costing sell prices vs latest landed costs from POs received this month.
6. Review & plan — 5 lines: what grew, what leaked, margin trend, and how much to reinvest into ads vs inventory next month.

Output

A clean #month-close row in Cashflow Monthly and a short written review in the note body.
