The result to aim for
Nicolas Cléton launched the `/traitement-factures` order on a PDF file: 40 invoices read by OCR, 13 accounts receivable out of 92, 8 VAT autoliquidation detected, 44 entries in a spreadsheet (date, newspaper, account, debit, credit), 8 USD invoices converted.
What was done
Post LinkedIn public signed (Nicolas Cléton, October 26, 2025, page read November 10, 2026). Target declared: 100 €/month less tools; Pennylane is still reading 30 to 50 bills a month. The post also describes an accounting classification and renaming PDFs — out of title. Next step (balance sheet, VAT): not yet in production. "Zero for lack of seizure" is his finding on this lot, unaudited. Distinct from Lalau (Evaneos) and Ceiba (fees).
