Team Financial Bug ?

scotty · 12-21-2021, 12:08 PM

I'm playing FHM 8.4.71 and have just started to get into the new team finances. Maybe I'm missing something but it seems to me that the Game Revenue Points Total earned within a month does not show up on the season summary until the end of the following month. For example the Game Revenue points earned in, say, January don't show up in the season summary until the end of February report and are shown against February. The other categories (Broadcast, Sponsorship etc) seem to be OK.

Is this a bug or am I misunderstanding how this works ?

The calculation is made once a month, so it'll always show the income earned during the month leading up to it.

Well I think I see what's going on here, but as I understand it the reporting of rev/exp in the season summary is unnecessarily delayed and a bit confusing.

Here's how I see it....
- rev/exp incurred in, say October, is calculated at end of October, or perhaps 1 November
- those figures are not reported on the season summary until 1 December and are shown on the December row even though the figures relate to October

Given that the figures for October are available on 1 November why not report them in the November row of the season summary and report them on 1 November.

This would show them sooner to the period in which the rev/exp occured and would avoid a further 1 month delay.
