QUESTIONS

What owners ask

What is the software and bookkeeping alignment step?

Live job costs inside thirty seconds, with the bookkeeping cadence that keeps them current. It's step 05 of 8 in CONTROL, drawn from chapter 5.

Does the order make a difference?

Yes. This step depends on job cost structure, so installing it first produces numbers the field won't trust.

What does it change downstream?

It feeds monthly cadence. A change here moves every one of those.

What fails if I skip step 05?

1 later step reads from it: 07, monthly cadence. Skip it and that runs on numbers that were never established, so the output looks finished and isn't.

Where does step 05 fit in the sequence?

Position 5 of 8 once the dependencies are resolved. It waits on 01. 1 step waits on it. Most owners install all 8 inside 60 days.
