Brief to file
Prepared properly, or not sent at all.
A requirement arrives in words and leaves as criteria. Checks run against the output, not against the intention. What cannot be evidenced is left out and listed.
- Change tracking
- What moved since the last delivery, so a refresh does not read as a new universe.
- Record identifiers
- Giving every row a stable key so a later refresh can be matched against this one.
- Geography resolution
- Working out which location a record belongs to when it carries several addresses.
A brief in your own words beats a template.
