With negative/positive, the invariant would be sum(amount) = 0; with your approach, it would be sum(debit-credit)=0. Both are valid, it is just two ways of expressing the same thing. I think it is useful to think about double-entry boo

That part of the article felt quite wrong to me as well. I've built accounting systems that worked well for a decade, where internally the values were a single amount column in the journal table. If it was a debit, it'd be positiv

Good question. LLMs are surprisingly less fragile than hand-coded parsers for unstructured data like the ones in a bank statement. And to be clear - I'm not sending the entire statement to Claude; instead, only the account name/na

Plain Text Accounting has become significantly easier to do for me on a regular basis, thanks to LLMs. Specifically: importing bank statements into hledger and avoiding manual entry. I use a JSON file to map bank entries to my hledger accou
