Summary

For processes involving collection on another party's behalf, establish who updates the status, which documents confirm it, and who reconciles it. This situation should be included in discovery for AI Operations Log. Do not automatically treat a message as final proof of payment.

A common situation

Illustrative scenario: A message saying payment has been collected leads a manager to mark the task complete. Only during reconciliation does the team discover that the money is still awaiting remittance. They need a clear sequence of statuses, not one blanket 'done.'

Three steps you can try

  1. Distinguish collected, awaiting remittance, and reconciled.
  2. Assign the person responsible for updates.
  3. Use supporting documents to confirm the final step.

What to remember

For processes involving collection on another party's behalf, establish who updates the status, which documents confirm it, and who reconciles it. This situation should be included in discovery for AI Operations Log. Do not automatically treat a message as final proof of payment.

This is a hypothetical illustration, not an ACC customer testimonial or project result.
