Production accounting lives or dies on cost-to-budget tracking. When costs are not coded to the production and the budget line, overruns surface after wrap, and crew 1099s become a January problem.
Cost against budget
Tracked per production, per line, while it can still change something.
Crew 1099-ready
Cast, crew, and contractors set up before wrap, not after.
Income by source
Client work, licensing, and distribution kept distinct.
Between projects
Books stay current in the gaps, so the next one starts clean.
