A system that processes trade events is provided. The system receives events associated with a supply chain financial orchestration flow, where a supply chain financial orchestration flow defines a trade relationship between a first entity and a second entity. The system further determines whether at least one event indicates an ownership change of an item between a first entity and a second entity. The system further generates trade events where at least one event indicates an ownership change. The system further sends the trade events to a cost accounting system. The cost accounting system further performs accounting based on the trade events and generates trade accounting events.
