A client project's invoiced revenue and a contractor's billed cost could
never count toward the project: books.create_invoice and books.create_bill
posted at once with untagged lines, and only a draft's line takes a class.
Job costing (B-37 item 3) collects a job's billings and the supplier
invoices for its direct costs on its cost sheet, so each document line
now takes an optional project.
The owner decided it on 2026-10-22 (plan D-43, rules.md B-37 item 8):
each line takes one project or none; a document spanning N projects is N
lines, each with its own amount; no percentage split, so every figure is
exact; a cost truly shared among projects names none on the document
and reaches projects only as entries of their own under the company's
monthly allocation convention, when books.conventions has one (otherwise
it stays untagged and the agent asks the human). The reasoning, stated
in B-37: job costing charges a job the costs traceable to it, whole, and
reaches shared costs only by allocation on a stated basis. ASC
340-40-25-7 counts as directly related both the costs traceable to a
contract (25-7(a), (b), (d), (e)) and allocations of costs that relate
directly to it (25-7(c)); 25-8 expenses general and administrative cost.
The books carry the first whole on the document's line and the second as
the allocation convention's own entries; neither is a percentage on the
document (sources/fasb-asc.md, 25-7 and 25-8 added). The handbook's
projects rule and the line's class parameter say the same, and no
handbook sentence lets a shared cost be split across a document's lines.
The accounting: the document's entry posts one revenue (an invoice's) or
expense (a bill's) line per project its lines name, in the order each is
first named, each the sum of that project's lines, and the untagged
lines' sum as one more line (arap::document_parts, conservation checked
by a proptest). A document naming no project therefore posts exactly the
one line every document posted before. The receivable or payable line is
never tagged: it is a balance-sheet line, which item 3 counts nothing;
the payments (receive_payment, pay_bill) move cash against it and take no
project either. Nothing but the projects moves: the P&L, the 1099
worksheet (payments made, B-19) and party totals (what moved the money,
B-35) read the same with or without the tags (twin-books test); the
projects with the untagged lines still partition the P&L.
- ledger-core: DocumentLine.class_id (serde-omitted when none, so old
documents serialize as before); create_invoice / create_bill split the
revenue or expense side by project and tag it; an unknown project is
refused whole (atomically).
- ledger-store: a document line's project is journaled as class_id on
invoice.created / bill.created, and the entry's line as
entry.line_class_set right after its entry.line_added (the entry.posted
lines carry class_id, as a hand-built entry's do). Behind a NEW journal
feature, document_line_projects (KNOWN_FEATURES, declared by new books,
asked for before the first journaled line, not even the control
accounts written on refusal); not `projects`, which the live books
already declared: the owner consents again at the next upgrade. A
malformed class_id is corrupt; null or absent is none. Untagged
documents journal byte for byte as before; old journals replay
unchanged.
- ledger-mcp: each line takes class (id or name, resolved like
add_line's, every one before anything is written); the result gains
notes for a finished or abandoned project, and on an invoice for an
on-spec project (is there now an agreement? on spec a hoped-for
payment is no receivable, B-37 item 4), tagged anyway; books lacking
the feature refuse with format_upgrade_pending. books.get_entry shows a
line's class_id and project. The handbook's "an invoice or bill takes no
project yet" caveat now depends on the books: gone where the feature is
declared, an "until their format upgrade" note where it isn't.
- ledger-gui: an invoice's or bill's page (its entry's) lists the
document's lines, each project a link that opens it; the demo's client
invoices are tagged to "Client work", whose snapshot is now its revenue
less its contractors. Looking at the page in a narrow window found a
tagged line's tag pushing the amounts past the pane (any tagged entry):
the name is now cut to leave the tag room, the tag itself at most half
the cell.
- bookspec: an `invoice` event, and `lines` with `project` on a bill or
an invoice; example projects-invoice-and-bill-lines-count-by-project,
worked by hand, both projects client work (Zeta 3,500.00 - 1,200.00 =
2,300.00; Harbor 200.00;
untagged -1,750.00; together the P&L's 750.00; Dana's 1099 payments
1,250.00).
- fuzz: fuzz_store_replay can declare journal features.
- Tests: core, store, MCP, viewer, the P2-served cutover fixture and a
viewer/server parity test (its month lists the same length, not
empty); a tagged document's reversal nets its projects to zero, live
and replayed; books.get_entry's class_id; the handbook served as a
resource both ways; each fix broken to confirm its test fails
(docs/testing.md). Docs: rules.md B-27 and B-37 items 3 and 8,
sources/fasb-asc.md, plan/served.md D-43,
mcp-interface.md, testing.md, parity.md, plan/STATUS.md.
No proof changed (no kernel arithmetic: document_parts sums with the
existing document_total).

A project is a class with facts (description, status, kind, party,
dates, links, notes) in one project.set event behind the format
feature projects. Four tools (books.add_project, update_project,
projects, project); documents and decisions link to projects; B-37:
on-spec costs are expensed as incurred, repayment is revenue, and the
unrecovered cost is never below zero (Kani). Viewer: a Projects list
and a project page with its figures, by month and by account. The
sidebar measures its footer instead of reserving a fixed 172 px.

Split kernel::entry_flows into entry_movements and flows_of so the
reversal-mirror proof fits CI; prove runs the fast harnesses, prove-slow
the 8 slow ones (own job in scheduled CI), prove-all both. Laws in
verification.md renumbered 1-31 with a table of all 55 harnesses.
MCP docs checked against the 115 tools (about 60 fixes) with a test that
every tool is documented; rules.md cross-references fixed; bookspec
statuses and loader tightened; viewer notes wrap and accounts sort by
code; STATUS.md says P3 is built, cutover pending.

Book value is cost less what the books posted; the schedule's figure is
apart. An asset's acquired date comes from its entry. Contributed
property keeps its section 723 carryover basis apart from its depreciable
basis (the lower of value and adjusted basis), with its 704(c) built-in
gain and method. The K-1 worksheet reports tax-basis capital (Form 1065
Item L) beside the book figures, leaving open what only the CPA knows.

The final month takes what the months before leave, spread over its days;
a disposed asset stops on its disposal day. A skipped month is caught up
in the month the run is made; a reversed run un-posts its month. New
schedules spread by day; equal-months schedules must start on the 1st.
Amounts round to the currency's own minor unit. Kani and Lean proofs; an
exhaustive search over runs, reversals and disposals.

A vendor's 1099 decision is its own dated fact (files NEC or MISC, not
reportable with its reason, or undetermined), applied by each payment's
date. Payment methods are recorded; card and network payments are left
out and listed; a member's check through financing counts; a bank payment
with no method counts (D-40); $2,000 for payments after 2025. One
worksheet for the tool, the viewer and the CPA package.

Each party's part of an entry is signed as its own account would show it,
with a direction and its cash and in-kind amounts; a reversal is its
original negated. Totals on a cash or all basis: for a member, all equals
the members' equity statement and cash the K-1's cash. Money is cash,
cards and the financing accounts, and a liability credit never pays its
own creditor (creditor_of), so accruals and declared distributions count
once. tin_last4 from the TIN or W-9 facts.

books.rename_account; account names trimmed, bounded, refused when a
sibling's or TIN-shaped; books.show refuses what its target ignores. A
report asked for without dates covers this fiscal year so far, everywhere
(one rule for tools, descriptions and the viewer; the IIF and CPA package
keep their own dates). policy.require_tax_category warns or refuses; a
Form 4797 gain is shown apart on every return.

Direct method with the operating reconciliation and noncash schedules; it
foots by construction (Lean and Kani). Every non-cash account belongs to
one section; reversals net; a member or lender paying for the company is
cash borrowed and spent (D-42, constructive receipt and disbursement);
property a member contributes stays noncash. The bookspec seed: one loader
checks every example.

The CPA package's general-journal.iif now holds every posted entry through
as_of (closing entries left out, D-36), written as plain ASCII with CR LF,
DOCNUM the entry id, QuickBooks Desktop's field limits and subaccount types
honoured, and every character written differently listed in the export's
warnings and the README (grouped by substitution, TINs masked). The 1099
worksheet stops at as_of too. PDFs print CJK, Arabic, Hebrew, Thai and
Devanagari (Noto fallbacks, OFL), and so does the viewer. has_full_tin reads
Unicode separators.

Members' shares of earnings are split cumulatively by largest remainder in
the closes, the members' equity statement, the K-1 worksheet and the
viewer, so a member's capital on a given day never moves by a cent when its
month is later closed. Old closes replay as they were; the first P3 close
carries any true-up. Feature members_cumulative. Kani and Lean proofs of
the bounded drift; bookspec examples.
