Every report a CPA expects, laid out the way US small-business books
read (QuickBooks as the reference):
- Exports: books.export gains general_ledger (by account, running
balances, splits), general_journal (the entry-ordered listing, which
the CPA package used to mislabel "general ledger"; alias journal),
members_equity, and trial_balance as of a date, in xlsx/csv/json, and
PDF for all five statements (P&L, balance sheet, cash flow, trial
balance, members' equity). books.trial_balance takes as_of.
- CPA package: every statement as PDF and XLSX, plus the general ledger
and general journal, all for the fiscal year to date.
- Layout (ledger-import::report): multi-column statements (Total;
Debit/Credit; one column per member plus Total), "$" on subtotals and
totals, a rule above every sum (none over an empty section), a double
rule under statement totals, zero as 0.00, negatives in parentheses
with the closing paren hanging so decimal points align.
- Terms: "Net income (loss)"; for a multi-member LLC, "Members' equity",
member contributions and distributions named in the cash flow, and the
balance sheet splitting retained earnings (the Retained Earnings
account plus earnings not yet closed from earlier years) from the
fiscal year's net income (loss); the cash flow's "Adjustments to
reconcile net income (loss) to net cash from operating activities" and
"Net increase (decrease) in cash".
- PDF: Inter replaces the typst-assets serif fonts (bundled, SIL OFL 1.1,
license in fonts/; from the official v4.1 release), centered title
block, column-header row, full-width rules, footer "Accrual basis ·
Prepared <date> · Journal seq N" with page numbers. Amounts on total
rows stay regular weight so bold figures can't leave the decimal
column. typst-assets dependency removed.
- XLSX: centered title block, header row, Excel accounting formats with
"$" attached on sums, general ledger and general journal workbooks.
- Config: wanderbooks.toml [[company.members]] (name, share "50%" or
"0.5", capital_account; shares must total 100%) and [books]
accounting_basis (accrual | cash).
- Core: RETAINED_EARNINGS_CODE names the "3999" that period close uses.
- Fix: "today" is local time, not UTC; in US evenings UTC is tomorrow,
so reports defaulting to "through today" included the next day and
footers carried the wrong date.
Tests: layout (currency and rule placement, retained earnings vs. this
year's net income for a member LLC, footer text); exact template data;
deterministic PDFs; config parsing (members, shares, basis); stdio:
trial balance as of, February general ledger (beginning 1,004.00, splits,
ending 1,003.50), members' equity (contributions 1,000.00, net income
3.50, ending 1,003.50), members' equity PDF, the CPA package's ten files.

Every statement export rendered life-of-ledger totals under whatever date
range or as-of label was asked for, and the P&L and balance sheet XLSX
were totals-only. Now:
- books.profit_and_loss / books.balance_sheet and the csv, json, xlsx,
pdf exports and CPA package all use core's profit_and_loss_for_period
and balance_sheet_as_of, with a line per account. The tools keep their
totals and add revenue/expense/asset/liability/equity account lines.
An omitted start is the first posted entry, never "0001-01-01".
- ledger-import::report lays a statement out once (section, line,
subtotal, total) for every renderer, with one exact amount formatter:
thousands separators, negatives in parentheses, no floats. XLSX keeps
numeric cells with an accounting number format, named sheets, company
header, totals with borders; the trial balance gains its totals row.
- ledger-mcp reads wanderbooks.toml (next to --data-dir, or
--books-toml): company name for headers, fiscal_year_start for the CPA
package's fiscal year to date (end derived; Feb 29 rejected), and
[books] receipt_threshold, which the server had been ignoring.
config.json's receipt_policy still wins when set. New dependency: toml
1.x (already in the lockfile via another crate).
- Store::journal_seq(); every report notes the journal seq it reflects.
Tests: company.rs unit tests (fiscal years incl. a July start, scaffold
parsing, bad settings); report.rs formatting tests; an MCP stdio test with
--books-toml (threshold 5.00 enforced, February-only P&L with account
lines, start defaults to the first entry, as-of balance sheet).

The cash flow statement was computed and exportable as csv/json/xlsx but
missing from every PDF path, so the CPA package carried two of the three
financial statements. Now:
- ledger-import: cash_flow_pdf renders the indirect-method statement
(operating with net income, depreciation add-back, working-capital
lines; investing; financing; net change reconciled to beginning and
ending cash) from the computed CashFlowStatement, so the period and
cash accounts are the caller's.
- books.export gains format "pdf" for profit_and_loss, balance_sheet, and
cash_flow (base64, like xlsx), plus financing_accounts for cash_flow.
- books.export_cpa_package adds cash-flow.pdf (fiscal year to date, like
the P&L) and requires cash_accounts: without them the statement has
nothing to reconcile to.
- One cash_flow_statement helper resolves codes and dates for xlsx, pdf,
and the package.
Test: MCP stdio test exports all three statement PDFs, checks the
cash_accounts and bad-report refusals, and unzips the CPA package to find
all five files. Known report gaps are logged in plan/STATUS.md.

Posted entries stay immutable (R-3), but their evidence can now change the
same way the ledger does: by appending events, never by editing or
deleting. New R-13a.
- books.unlink_receipt {attachment_id, reason} journals receipt.unlinked
and leaves the receipt filed, unlinked. The receipt policy holds: an
entry that requires a receipt can't lose its last one (structured
receipt_required error), so a replacement is attach-new, then
unlink-old. Drafts and reversals are exempt, as at posting.
- books.withdraw_attachment {attachment_id, reason} journals
attachment.withdrawn for an unlinked receipt or a filed document: hidden
from list_receipts (unless include_withdrawn), never linkable again. The
blob stays in the store, hash-verified and readable.
- link_receipt now refuses an already-linked or withdrawn attachment.
Before, re-linking silently moved a receipt off a posted entry,
bypassing the policy; evidence now leaves an entry only through a
recorded unlink. dispose_asset checks its receipt ids before posting
instead of after.
- Schema v5 adds attachments.withdrawn_at/withdrawn_reason; existing
stores migrate on open and replay rebuilds the projection.
Tests: store test (errors, reopen, rebuild, verify, journal history) and
an MCP stdio test (policy refusal, replace flow, withdraw, listings,
under-threshold unlink). Dry-run and live use on the Wanderland Labs books:
8 migrated .eml attachments swapped for their PDF renders, trial balance
unchanged.
