At the moment, if you buy and sell products from your Enterprise, those financial transactions aren't registered in the "Enterprise Cash Flow" table. The way the game adjusts for this is, if memory and intuition serve, by adjusting both the Initial and End Positions of the cashflow statement.

So, if you spend 1T in Shoes, your "Last Month Cash" is shifted by -1T and your Cash Available is also shifted by -1T, so everything is in balance.

To keep a better record, we should mirror what happens in countries, and add two additional itens to the cashflow statement:
- Materials bought
- Materials sold

Given the information is already in the transaction logs, and the table is for the current month only, I trust this will be easy to implement.


On a side note, the "balance" and "profit & loss" links at the top of the finance page aren't working for Enterprises. The anchors they are pointing too don't seem to exist, but the tables do.
