Talking with Steve about master corporation (aka meta data systems, aggregated data, data warehouse, etc.) ideas. What if we did the master corp thing and then mapped all the pieces where they need to be. We already have a ton of mappings from the normal system into reports and financials. What if we used the same model but just got aggregated sums and totals and recorded them per day per location per category. It could be pretty simple, by using the existing systems and just recording master totals under a master corporation of sorts. The break through today is - use what we have... and then all of the existing code still works without building new tables and new logic.
