The monthly cycle
Bookkeeping practices are a monthly loop across tens or hundreds of clients: collect invoices, sort, book, file, return reports and tax notices. Folders and a calendar work at small scale; more clients means missed filings, missed returns, and lost tickets. We build a workbench by client, period, and task: invoices in, books done, tax filed, deliverables archived. Clients see which invoices to send and where this month stands, which cuts chasing calls. Nodes configure by tax type and region, not hard-coded.
