I acknowledged your list in what you call "four main points within a
single regular business process", but I 've seen specific cases but
industry specific and party relationship is a better design for this.

I understand what you meant, In my mind, controlling is part of
accounting. Rules you mention don't apply to analytics anyway but it was
not my point. When I mentionned "consolidate accounting situations", I
was thinking about cases like risk exposure to failure of a party, but
there are probably many other usages of party relationship.

I'm interested in understanding this point. So far, most accountant
activity is called accounting. Can you elaborate on this separation ? is
it a standard ? any idea how we should consider this in Tryton design ?
in Tryton user interface and documentation ?
