Analytical accounting provides a detailed view of a company’s costs and revenues by allocating them to specific analysis axes (e.g., teams, projects, cost centers). Its main benefit is to facilitate the precise monitoring of performance and optimize strategic decisions by clearly identifying sources of profitability and cost centers.
In Fact, analytical accounting can be enabled and configured during invoice transfers. It relies on three levels of allocation: at the folder level, for categories, or for articles.
