Changes in the supply chain of one product may affect the price and availability of many other products. Likewise, a product may be composed of a number of smaller parts. Changes in the cost or availability of any of the parts that comprise a product may result in changes in cost or availability of the product as well as many other related products. A supply chain analysis engine is used to model a supply chain. The supply chain analysis engine may identify dependencies between products, sub products, and supply chains. The dependencies may be used to analyze the impact of a change in the supply chain on all relevant products.

A computer-implemented method of managing reconciliation and write-off data in an accrual-based accounting environment may include steps of retrieving a plurality of transactions associated with a predetermined purchase order from a database coupled to a computer network; calculating an aggregate accrual balance of the retrieved plurality of transactions and associating the calculated aggregate accrual balance with a unique first identifier; when the aggregate accrual balance associated with the unique first identifier indicates that the predetermined purchase order is unbalanced, loading a first reconciliation table with first reconciliation information and storing the first reconciliation table in the database; enabling writing-off the aggregate accrual balance, and when the aggregate accrual balance has been written-off, removing the first reconciliation information from the first reconciliation table and storing the first reconciliation table in the database.
