Where it usually breaks

And how to keep it from happening.

  • Wrong scope. Check the organization, business unit and assessment revision before recording a new action.
  • Unclear handoff. Leave the owner, reviewer and reason visible on the working record.
  • Repeated request. Use the recorded operation key and receipt to distinguish a retry from new work.
