40d:Bookkeeper
The Bookkeeper is an appointed noble position. It keeps track of the numbers of items in your stockpiles.
The Bookkeeper uses the Clerk skill.
To be effective, you must go into the 'nobles' screen, highlight the Bookkeeper position, and enter the 'settings' screen. You can set a desired precision for your Bookkeeper's counts; the higher this is set, the more work is required. Above the lowest precision, your bookkeeper will also require a meager office.
Your Bookkeeper will perform the "Update Stockpile Records" task until the desired level of precision is reached.
As of version 0.27.169.32a, the Bookkeeper when set on the highest precision level gains Clerk skill extremely fast: Your Bookkeeper can reach legendary status within a season, and achieve all skill gains associated with the position. At the highest precision level, they will continue performing their task even when they have done all the work they need to do; this means that anyone can be made a Bookkeeper and quickly reap large amounts of experience.
