The 8.0.6 checklist for this slice, which adds fields on party.updated
(an email and two default terms) and the invoicing settings it guards:
1. books_written_under_older_rules_still_open now hand-writes a party's
email and terms and an invoicing setting through JournalWriter, and the
books still open, verify and replay them.
2. A new old-books fixture, p4_s42_settings_parties, was written by the
version before this slice (1bfce915, through the old-books-writer
harness) with a party, a vendor, two posted entries and three settings,
and its expected.json from that version's code. This version opens it,
verifies it and reports its figures identically.
3. books_p2_served_cut_over_whole gains a refused invoicing setting before
the go-ahead; the same call succeeds after it.
4. documents_v2_is_its_own_feature: books that declared every earlier
feature stop at its declaration as newer, wait for the upgrade, and
name exactly it in the upgrade.
No figure moves (item 5): settings and party facts enter no report.
Merge does not need the owner's go-ahead; the live books refuse the new
party and setting writes with the upgrade remedy until he gives it.
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 schedule-convention setting, the two new tax categories, a disposal
before the in-service date and a depreciation catch-up each need their
feature now (tax_categories_gain_exempt, disposal_before_service,
depreciation_catch_up), so no write before consent leaves books P2 refuses
or misreads; replayed names are read with P2's TIN detector (B-28). The
cutover runs end to end through the real P2 and P3 binaries in a test.

Books an update could write a newer format for open on their old format
and are asked at every open; anything needing a new feature is refused
until the owner agrees with the passphrase, after a verified backup that
includes the keys. New books start on the current format. Each projection
schema has its own database file, so an older version still opens the
books until the owner agrees.
