Stable references
Carry document IDs, cost codes, vendor references and posting state into the hand-off.
Tally workflow
Prepare controlled construction cost data for Tally
CostGrid can control project obligations and evidence while Tally remains the chosen accounting ledger. A future file hand-off must be validated, documented and separately certified; no such Tally workflow is claimed in this release.
Where control breaks
Recognise the warning signs
- Project dimensions are lost at export
- Ledger entries cannot be traced back
- Teams expect silent two-way sync
The CostGrid control path
Reviewed-export requirement
A future workflow must move approved records only, use explicit mapping and record an attributable export event.
Honest boundary
Do not imply statutory posting, bank reconciliation or live sync until separately certified.
Operational outcome
The hand-off design preserves project evidence without representing that live Tally synchronisation is available.
Control one live project before expanding
Start with one live project, keep the control trail intact, and expand only after the workflow proves useful.
