The answer
Simulated answer. Written for this fictional case, not produced by a live model. Only the figures in it are computed, from what you decided above.
0 of 6 sources are open to the investigation agent, 0 records.
The agent can look across stock, tills and deliveries to find where the losses concentrate [S1][S2]. CCTV and personnel data are restricted and cannot be brought in here: if they become relevant, the owners decide, through their own process.
Two classifications are uncertain, and free-text notes can hold personal remarks, so a person must verify them: 0 included source(s) still need that. The agent reports patterns for a person to follow up; it does not accuse anyone.

Review and approval
The chief financial officer with internal audit decides. Approving authorises the agent to read the sources in scope. It does not authorise any action against any person.
Not ready to approve. Choose at least one source to read first.
In the product this is a different person with the right permission. Here you play that role to see the rule.
What it produces
Authorisation record
- Who authorised the scope and which classifications a person verified.
Limits of this example
- Scope bounds what the agent reads; findings still need human judgement.
- Restricted sources require their owners' exception, outside this screen.
- This is a scripted demonstration on fictional data. No model was called and no real organisation, person or result is shown.
