# P&L Traceability

The ability to follow value from strategy and initiatives through to its impact on the profit-and-loss statement.

P&L traceability is the through-line from strategic intent to financial result: it lets an organization show how a specific initiative moved the profit-and-loss statement. Combined with GL-code tracing and P&L tagging, it closes the loop between what leadership set out to do and what the finances reflect.

This traceability is a defining capability of strategy execution — it is what turns benefits from a claim into a number finance can stand behind.
