Vessels are bareboat or time chartered between companies inside the same group across several jurisdictions, and management fees, charter hire and cost recharges pass between them monthly. The entries are booked from a template that was set when the structure was created, so a rate that was never revised, or a leg booked on one side and not the other, surfaces at audit or at a tax enquiry. If you finance or lease vessels, that is a desk in your own business.
What the work is
An agent posts each intercompany charter and recharge against the agreement that governs it, checks both legs of every entry are booked and agree, and lists the agreements whose rates have not been reviewed for the current period. It reconciles the intercompany balances before the ledgers close. In the Cabinet, ArkOne’s reference design for an executive agent, this is the Finance seat: one of ten specialists the room can consult, each a name, a model and a set of instructions rather than a department.
The part of the design carrying the weight here is the minutes, and the setting that governs it is stated once on the Register.
What it does not do
Whether an intercompany rate is defensible for the current period and needs revising, because setting a rate between the group’s own companies is a tax position the group has to be able to defend. That is not a limitation of the software. It is the line the reference design draws on purpose, and a vendor who offers to move it is selling you something else.
What changes
An intercompany leg booked on one side only is found before the ledgers close, not at audit.
Take bareboat charter, intercompany recharge, management fee into the demonstration and use them without explaining them. A vendor whose agent handles this work already knows those words; one who asks what they mean is showing you a system built for a different trade.

By evening
Drag the day. This work is owned by the Finance seat, and one hour of it is not the machine's to decide.
Assembly · the Seats
The Seat that owns this work gathers what it needs and drafts. This is the part a demonstration shows you, and it is the part that cannot break anything.
What you have at five: An intercompany leg booked on one side only is found before the ledgers close, not at audit
The hours are a shape, not a schedule. What is fixed is the order: nothing reaches a system you run before the Door, and nothing continues past the wait without a person.
