Bosses reject system-generated P&L format, forcing manual entry of 30 subsidiary P&Ls into Excel with hardcoded values and varying line descriptions, preventing automation.

Existing ERP or accounting systems cannot produce P&Ls in the format preferred by bosses, and the variability of line descriptions across 30 subsidiaries makes automation with traditional tools impossible.
