# Findings — Confirmed

![Findings — Confirmed](/docs-content/38aebb944c-03-confirmed.png.webp)

**Navigation:** Intelligence → Findings → Confirmed  
**Primary audience:** domain owners, reviewers, managers, and users responsible for downstream work

## Purpose

Confirmed shows reviewed findings that are allowed to inform governed business records, actions, notifications, reports, and monitoring. It makes their downstream effect visible and prevents confirmed information from becoming detached from evidence.

## Scope controls and indicators

Period filters confirmation date or latest evidence. Domain narrows finding category. Downstream Impact filters affected projects, accounts, opportunities, cases, reports, or actions. Confirmed By filters authorized reviewers.

The summary shows confirmed findings, actions created, business objects updated, and notifications sent. These totals measure propagation, not business success.

## Confirmed findings register

Each row shows statement, confirmation date, domain, impact, owner, source, and affected object. Selecting an item opens its complete impact and evidence chain.

## Selected finding impact

This panel explains which records changed, which actions were created, which stakeholders were notified, and which updates remain pending. Every effect retains its state and link back to the finding. Notifications show delivered, failed, suppressed, or awaiting approval.

## Supporting analysis

**Downstream impact** summarizes affected object types. **Notification outcomes** reports delivery without implying that the recipient read or agreed. **Confirmed-finding actions** identifies missing work, new evidence, reopening candidates, and briefing preparation.

## Actions

- Open the finding's evidence chain and review decision.
- Create an action when no appropriate follow-up exists.
- Open an updated project, account, opportunity, case, or report.
- Notify a permitted recipient or prepare a governed brief.
- **Reopen** when new evidence contradicts or materially changes the confirmed result.
- Mark an impact as not applicable without changing the source finding.

## Recommended procedure

Check high-impact confirmed findings for an appropriate owner and follow-up. Inspect pending or failed propagation. Reopen rather than editing history when later evidence changes the conclusion.

## Interpretation

Confirmed means an authorized review accepted the finding as usable under the configured process. It does not make a prediction certain, convert a concern into intent, or establish legal or disciplinary guilt.
