Start with a problem

Transactions need a second reconciliation view

Review limit: Keep the accountant in charge; review the parallel ledger before any ledger-of-record change.

Vendor report

Reviewable output: Variance commentary or a connected reporting artifact with figures and explanations for finance review.

Review limit: Check figures and explanations against the source records before sign-off.

Selection guidance and labels

Check amounts, dates, currency and assumptions against the source documents. Keep a person responsible for decisions and approvals. A source report or proposed plan does not establish accounting accuracy or compliance.

Single tasks produce a bounded output. Multi-step workflows connect stages; review each handoff. Ongoing responsibilities need repeated oversight. Function and scope are editorial labels, not evidence of the source operator’s occupation.

64 distinct tasks with reviewed finance labels: 59 source-backed and 5 original proposals. None has been independently executed by BotCurrent. Tool mappings and Canadian access are separate assessments.

Source-linked tasks and original plans

Allocate included retainer hours and potential overage

A monthly retainer can cover a fixed time quota while only excess work is separately billable. Splitting the threshold-crossing entry and reconciling prior billing is difficult when entries span projects or contract rules leave rounding, rollover or eligible work unclear.

Audit row-level time coverage when a timesheet is marked billed

A mixed-project timesheet can carry a whole-sheet billed label while only some time rows have invoice coverage. A useful review must distinguish genuinely unmatched minutes in a complete supplied ledger from absent links, cancelled documents and known reversals; it cannot infer chargeability from a header status.
