## 🧮 Calculation Methods

### Partner Balance Updates
```php
// Withdrawal processing
function processWithdrawal($partnerId, $amount, $sourceType, $sourceId) {
    // Update partner balance
    $partner = $partnerDAO->load($partnerId);
    $partner->partnerbalance -= $amount;
    $partnerDAO->update($partner);
    
    // Update business account
    if ($sourceType == 'save') {
        $save = $saveDAO->load($sourceId);
        $save->savevalue -= $amount;
        $saveDAO->update($save);
    } else if ($sourceType == 'bank') {
        $bank = $bankDAO->load($sourceId);
        $bank->balance -= $amount;
        $bankDAO->update($bank);
    }
}
```

### Inter-Partner Transfer
```php
// Transfer between partners
function transferBetweenPartners($fromPartnerId, $toPartnerId, $amount) {
    // Validate source balance
    $fromPartner = $partnerDAO->load($fromPartnerId);
    if ($fromPartner->partnerbalance < $amount) {
        throw new Exception("Insufficient balance");
    }
    
    // Update balances
    $fromPartner->partnerbalance -= $amount;
    $toPartner = $partnerDAO->load($toPartnerId);
    $toPartner->partnerbalance += $amount;
    
    // Save updates
    $partnerDAO->update($fromPartner);
    $partnerDAO->update($toPartner);
}
```

### Daily Entry Generation
```php
// Generate accounting entry for withdrawal
function createWithdrawalEntry($partnerId, $amount, $date) {
    // Partner Capital Account (Credit)
    createDailyEntry("Partner Capital - " . $partnerName, $amount, 'credit', $date);
    
    // Cash/Bank Account (Debit)  
    createDailyEntry("Cash Account", $amount, 'debit', $date);
}
```

## 📊 Performance Considerations

2. **Balance Verification**: Real-time balance checking
3. **Financial Precision**: Accurate decimal arithmetic for money

### Database Optimization
- Index on partner ID and transaction dates
- Efficient balance calculation queries

## 🐛 Common Issues & Troubleshooting

### 1. **Insufficient Balance Errors**
**Issue**: Partner tries to withdraw more than available balance  
**Solution**: Implement real-time balance checking and validation

### 2. **Financial Inconsistencies**
**Issue**: Partner balances don't match business account totals  
**Solution**: Implement balance reconciliation procedures

### 3. **Transaction Integrity**
**Issue**: Partial updates if system fails mid-transaction  
**Solution**: Use database transactions for atomic operations
