# Preserve how a review sample was selected

Illustrative planning brief; no automatic product import.

Synthetic planning case: A recorded draw selects cases A,C,E from a six-case inventory A–F. Before review, C is unavailable; the coordinator substitutes easier case B while the final report still says the original draw was reviewed.

## Decision

The actual reviewed set is A,B,E, not A,C,E. Preserve the original draw, C’s nonreview and the convenience replacement B. Equal final sample size does not preserve the recorded selection procedure.

## Owned work

- Retain original selection identities
  - Owner role: Review coordinator
  - Acceptance evidence: A,C,E and the stated draw procedure are recorded before substitutions.
- Document nonreview and replacement
  - Owner role: Recorder
  - Acceptance evidence: C’s absence and B’s ease-based inclusion remain visible with reasons.
- Describe the actual evidence scope
  - Owner role: Reviewer
  - Acceptance evidence: The report names reviewed A,B,E and does not attribute B to the original draw.

## Workflow

1. Retain original selection identities. Check: A,C,E and the stated draw procedure are recorded before substitutions.
2. Document nonreview and replacement. Check: C’s absence and B’s ease-based inclusion remain visible with reasons.
3. Describe the actual evidence scope. Check: The report names reviewed A,B,E and does not attribute B to the original draw.

## Judgment

The inventory is invented. No population representativeness or statistical correction is established; replacement rules need a justified actual design.


## Filled manual planning note

The actual reviewed set is A,B,E, not A,C,E. Preserve the original draw, C’s nonreview and the convenience replacement B. Equal final sample size does not preserve the recorded selection procedure. The original and actual sets each contain three cases but differ in one identity: C was removed and B added. Two of three original selections were reviewed. The changed inclusion process must be reported rather than relabelled as an unchanged draw. The inventory is invented. No population representativeness or statistical correction is established; replacement rules need a justified actual design.


## Workflow questions

### Does an equal sample size preserve the method?

No. Which cases entered and why can change even when the count is unchanged.

### Does this prove the original draw was random?

No. The worksheet preserves a recorded procedure and identities; randomization itself requires evidence.

## Product connection

Use the owned checks and downloaded brief to discuss this planning decision alongside your TeamBoostAI tasks. Confirm available fields, roles and account features separately. The example is manual; it does not calculate live analytics, create work or run an experiment in the product.

Confirm account availability before adopting this manual outline.

## Original worked case

Synthetic records, manual planning only. No account import or live analytics.

### Inspect the invented case records

Case | Original draw | Actually reviewed | Selection history
--- | --- | --- | ---
A | Selected | Yes | Original selection retained
C | Selected | No | Unavailable; no review evidence
E | Selected | Yes | Original selection retained
B | Not selected | Yes | Ease-based replacement for C

### Reasoning

The original and actual sets each contain three cases but differ in one identity: C was removed and B added. Two of three original selections were reviewed. The changed inclusion process must be reported rather than relabelled as an unchanged draw.

### Bounded result

The actual reviewed set is A,B,E, not A,C,E. Preserve the original draw, C’s nonreview and the convenience replacement B. Equal final sample size does not preserve the recorded selection procedure.

### Distinct decision

This audits draw-to-review inclusion history and substitutions, distinct from allocating a review to missing consequence strata.

### Limits

The inventory is invented. No population representativeness or statistical correction is established; replacement rules need a justified actual design.

### Definitions and method context

- Original worked-case definitions — Definitions, policy choices, records and calculations are authored for this worksheet. No external standard, statistical validation or live product measurement is claimed.
