Complete leased-asset classifications before disclosure
Boundary decisions often sit in contracts written for purposes other than reporting.
Consistency matters, but the evidence behind each decision is rarely uniform.

What pulls against what
- coverage speed vs. evidence sufficiency
- consistent rules vs. site-specific reality
- legal precision vs. reporting deadlines
- estimated values vs. auditable classifications
What is at stake
Incomplete lease evidence can leave a material boundary gap. A practical triage approach improves coverage while reserving scarce review capacity for consequential cases
