Close reporting needs fast exception evidence without letting an automated flag decide whether finance data is usable.
Tax reviewers need timely numbers, while Data Engineers need a controlled decision before a governed dataset is held or released.
Who you’d be doing this for
“I had three people asking why the dashboard moved, and all I had was a completed run.”

What is at stake
Completed Lakeflow runs are leaving tax reviewers to trace unexplained dashboard differences by hand. You must weigh faster exception triage against the human review required before governed finance data is held or released.
Why it isn’t already fixed
Every obvious fix costs something else. That’s the part you’d have to decide.
- faster close triage vs reviewer accountability
- row-level access vs useful exception evidence
- automated flagging vs human data-release decisions
- pilot speed vs SOX traceability
