In the 'old days,' it would be a public number board or chalkboard, but it would be accurate. This is what a lot of ladies in the military or in operational centers would have done.
And definitely nothing wrong with hand-tweaked HTML. I wish sites were basic enough and HTML clear enough that it could be more pervasive.
You can dig up ledgers from 'old-timey' 100-year-old from little stores in the middle of nowhere that were handwritten and perfect. Perfect handwriting, perfectly updated, perfect math (i.e. adds up after corrections).
What matters is that the process is legit, that people are responsible for how the numbers are propagated, and they do it professionally.
It's almost weird to think that people expect that there is a 'robust and specific electronic process' for everything.
The level of organizational planning in WW2 was pretty shocking: all docs, notes, cue-cards, human process.
