Week 20 Day 96 (18 Aug 2025)


Activity


- Continued cross-checking my old records with the COGS based on car sales records from the business owner, arranged by car plate numbers, focusing on January to March 2024.

- Issued an invoice to foreign clients regarding the SST registration services we provided.

- Rechecked the cars that needed to be carried forward to the following year because they were not sold within the financial year by clarifying questions I had previously accumulated with the client—mainly focusing on November and December records.


Key Learning


- Strengthened my ability to review and verify COGS systematically while managing large volumes of records.

- Learned how to properly issue invoices for foreign clients, including how SST registration fees are communicated.

- Understood the importance of identifying unsold assets, such as cars, and ensuring they are carried forward correctly to the following year for accurate reporting.

- Practiced client communication by asking the right questions to clear up uncertainties about unsold cars and financial records.


Reflection


Today the work was a mix of checking, invoicing and also client follow up. For the COGS, I continued to check back for the early months of 2024 which is January until March. It was quite routine but I realize it is important to be patient and consistent because small mistake can affect the whole record. I also issued an invoice to foreign client for SST registration. This one is new for me, because I can see how our company charge and send invoice to clients from overseas. It shows me how important clear detail in invoice is since the client not local, everything must be very precise.

In the afternoon, I rechecked back the cars that need to carry forward because not yet sold in the financial year. I need to confirm with client some question I keep before this, especially for November and December records. This make me see that sometimes accounting is not only about numbers, but also about asking and understanding the background of the record. Overall, today I feel like I combine technical checking, documentation and also communication. Some part was repetitive, but I can see how all these tasks connect together for proper financial reporting.
