Example
What this can look like in practice.

This is an illustrative example, not a promise of a particular result or turnaround time.

|---|---|---|
| Records | Bank feeds are connected but reconciliations and coding are inconsistent | A Xero setup and records review |
| Questions | Unclear items stay unresolved until a deadline is close | Questions are grouped, prioritised and resolved to an agreed timetable |
| Next step | No clear owner, cut-off date or completion point | A written scope sets responsibilities, timing and the next action |
