Cash shortages cause difficulties in manual ordering of products weapons and ammunition.
However, contracts the country has setup continue to run even if the cash levels of the country are too low and the country does not have any money to pay for the goods.
Contracts deliveries should in fact be limited if the country is unable to pay its bills.
we are looking at the possibility to skip contracts when cash levels are negative. such action will kick in when cash shortages are high (>15T or so) but will be tightened.
The goal is to prevent the execution of contracts when cash is negative.
contracts will not be cancelled or changed. The contracts will remain unchanged but deliveries according to the contracts will not be carried out if the country is unable to pay for them.
The same should go for automatic orders the countries need for the population and other automatic orders. These too should be

I can see not allowing contract sales if cash is negative a large amount (15T like your example). But contracts should not be canceled for small amounts of negative cash. Large countries, large economies sometimes run negative balances. It is NORMAL! Even in people's month to month real lives, we sometimes run negative cash flow. That's why we have credit cards. It can't run on negative forever, but a country should not have contracts unmet because it is 10B in the negative one month, when it normally runs a monthly surplus of 300B.
