FINANCE REVIEW · Workflow idea

Keep catalog prices aligned without propagating an unchecked price change.

For work involving current catalog prices, product identifiers, proposed price adjustments, and change records, check the facts and permissions before taking the next step. Prepare a comparison of matching product prices and proposed updates for a pricing owner to review. A wrong SKU, currency, or rounding rule can cause customer harm and financial loss. Verify item identity and current prices in both catalogs, document pricing rules and minimums, restrict access, and require an authorized owner to approve live changes.

04 / Make it yours

Set the brief.
Set the standard.

A few choices shape the work around your team.

Explain financial-data handling

State what is used, why, who can view it, and how long it is kept.

Define reconciliation and exception rules

Set currency, period, duplicate, rounding, discrepancy, and missing-record checks.

Restrict and expire financial copies

Use limited access and remove temporary records when they are no longer required.

Keep financial decisions human-led

Do not move money, file, issue a charge, or change a live record without explicit approval.
