Hello everyone, could you please share your use cases for the Statistical accounts? I would like to gain deeper insights from your experiences.

The two main uses I have seen for them are: 1. For use in Dashboard Reporting (Revenue per employee; Revenue per subscriber, etc.) 2. Allocate costs dynamically based on statistical balances. There are others, but those are the two I have encountered most frequently.

Extremely useful for the accounting team for monthly allocation of expenses based on headcount or square footage

I use them for reporting operational drivers at the act v budget report. ie we report our COGS as a $/unit; eg: if we're building widgets, each of our COGS accounts is represented as $/widget in a custom P&L for both actuals and budgets
