Task: Write the business_centre manual chapter
Table of Contents
This page documents a task in the Commission: business_centre story. It captures the goal, current status, acceptance, and any notes or results.
Goal
The user manual has a business_centre chapter covering every Qt window, ready for a future shell/CLI section once those top-level stories reach this entity.
Status
| Field | Value |
|---|---|
| State | DONE |
| Parent story | Commission: business_centre |
| Now | Nothing. |
| Waiting on | Nothing. |
| Next | Nothing. |
| Last touched | 2026-07-12 |
Acceptance
- Manual chapter added and cross-linked; site builds cleanly; screenshots captured for each Qt window.
Plan
(Implementation strategy. Written when work starts; key decisions
are distilled into the parent story's * Decisions at close, but the
plan itself stays — it is the historical record of what we did.)
Notes
Test Scenarios
Manual QA scenarios (scaffolded via compass add test_scenario, run
through the QA Validation Runner panel) that verify this task. Link
new ones here as they're created; the scenario doc itself links back
via its "Verifies task" field.

Result
Added the business_centre entity chapter (chapter_6b_business_centres.org)
to the user manual, covering the list, detail, history, and delete Qt
windows with real screenshots captured via the QA Validation Runner.
While grounding the chapter's domain-concepts section, corrected
business_centre.org (removed a fictitious "Branch" hierarchy, decoupled
business-centre assignment from EOD-enablement, removed
implementation-specific content) and authored a companion
business_unit.org knowledge doc leaning on FpML's BusinessUnit type.
This grew into a wider currency-domain knowledge-base pass: split a
personal notebook on currency concepts into ~20 new zettelkasten-style
knowledge docs (money, kinds of money, ISO 4217, currency lifecycle,
cash/assets/liquidity/cash flow, functional/presentation/denominated/
aggregation/settlement/premium currency, book currencies, sweep/spot
sweep/ledger sweep, FX spot revaluation types, closing rates screen),
cross-linked via org-roam and sourced against external standards (IAS 21,
ISDA definitions, FpML) where available, and rewrote
crm_risk_and_recentering.org as sourced prose. Site builds cleanly.
