I think most of whT you’re talking about it erp. In my experience bookkeeping gives a good and important but insufficiently detailed view of what’s going on in a business.

That’s a limitation of ERPs/accounting systems, not bookkeeping.

Thé de facto definition of bookkeeping is what I described. You’re using a more general definition. Basically, your argument is “keeping track of your business through data is good for your business.” You just said it in a fancy way.

No - I think most companies are overinstrumented from a generic data standpoint, and underinstrumented from a financial data standpoint.
