Ownership Boundaries
Project Operations records can be owned operationally, financially and technically by different systems or teams. A useful architecture page should state who creates, updates, validates, synchronises, posts and reconciles each material record.
Boundary checklist
- Which system is the creation point?
- Which system is allowed to enrich the record?
- Which changes are synchronised and which are not?
- Which record state triggers financial consequences?
- Which recovery path is supported if synchronisation fails?
- Which team owns operational correction versus financial correction?
Do not infer ownership from table visibility
Seeing a record in Dataverse or Finance does not automatically mean it is safe to create, update or delete there. Confirm the documented ownership and supported interface before remediation.
