Schema 13 is as shipped and the asset columns are schema 14 (shipped migrations pinned by hash); the tax-basis K-1 leaves net income open (only the return has it) and takes a contributed prepaid plan at its book amount as its section 723 basis; a disposal of contributed property names its 704(c) gain or loss; aliases compare by meaning; fixture amounts made up.

CPA handoff
- books.export_cpa_package carries every member's and 1099 payee's full TIN from the vault (the K-1 worksheet and the 1099 worksheet). It hands the zip over: run its download command with the folder the human wants it in (books served by
wanderbooks mcp), then tell them where it is. The viewer's "Export for CPA" makes the same package. - Never file the package, or a file from it, into the books.
- tin_gaps lists each member or payee whose TIN it lacks and why: collect them (books.set_tin, books.set_w9) and export again.
- Everything in it is as of its as_of: the 1099 worksheet counts the year's payments through that day, and general-journal.iif (the QuickBooks Desktop file) every posted entry from the first through it, closing entries left out. That file is plain ASCII within QuickBooks Desktop's limits: warnings (and the README) say what it writes differently from the books ("Café" as "Cafe", a name cut to 31 characters, a subaccount of another type at the top level, the memos grouped); tell the human. It names no customer or vendor: the README lists the entries on accounts receivable or payable, where QuickBooks may ask the CPA for one.
- With members, the K-1 worksheet is two files: k1-members.csv (each member's capital on the books, with their TIN) and k1-tax-basis-capital.csv (the same capital on the tax basis, as Schedule K-1 Item L reports it: property contributed at the member's adjusted basis, IRC §723, a prepaid contract handed over at its book amount for the CPA to confirm, and the reconciliation from book to tax capital). A line the books can't know (the share of income as figured for tax, always; tax depreciation; a disposal's tax gain; the basis of property no asset records) is left open with what the books have: tell the human the CPA supplies it; never fill it in.
