Decision and scope

Rules protecting business consistency need one authoritative definition shared by every entry point. A visual validation can guide a person while filling a form, but the underlying operation must recheck its conditions when it executes. Otherwise imports or assistants may bypass rules that appear reliable in the interface.

Illustrative example

Illustrative example: a website, an import process and an assistant all request stock reservations. Each uses the same availability calculation and authorization boundary. The assistant does not independently invent an exception that other channels would reject. Its role is to gather context and explain the result returned by the authoritative operation.

Acceptance check

List alternative entry points and compare their outcomes for identical cases. Avoid rule copies that evolve independently. Accept the distribution when every relevant operation reaches the correct authority and channels contribute presentation or context without redefining the business decision.

Key takeaways

  • Accept the distribution when every relevant operation reaches the correct authority and channels contribute presentation or context without redefining the business decision.
