Every record stays visible
| Team | Assigned protocol | Task observations | Assignment unit |
|---|---|---|---|
| T1 | A | 3 | Team |
| T2 | A | 3 | Team |
| T3 | B | 3 | Team |
| T4 | B | 3 | Team |

How the case leads to a decision
Four teams×three observations=12 records, but assignment occurred four times at team level. Within-team observations may share people and conditions.
The bounded result
There are four assigned team units and twelve task observations in this design. Preserve their grouping; task count does not establish twelve independent assignments.
Definitions and method context
Records, decisions and policies are original synthetic examples. External references supply context; they do not validate these cases or TeamBoostAI capabilities.

Turn the situation into owned work
Illustrative task boardSynthetic planning case: A pilot assigns each of four teams to one work protocol. Each team then completes three task rehearsals. A recap calls the twelve task records twelve independently assigned experimental units.

Evidence: Each task remains linked to its team exposure.
Review analysis assumptions
Owner role · Method lead
Evidence: Any independence or effective-sample claim is justified separately; twelve rows alone are not twelve assignments.
Decision to make: There are four assigned team units and twelve task observations in this design. Preserve their grouping; task count does not establish twelve independent assignments.
Filled manual planning note
Invented planning text. Adapt it to your evidence and confirmed owners.
There are four assigned team units and twelve task observations in this design. Preserve their grouping; task count does not establish twelve independent assignments. Four teams×three observations=12 records, but assignment occurred four times at team level. Within-team observations may share people and conditions. This synthetic design supplies no statistical model or independent-sample guarantee.
Put the outline to work
- Record the actual assignment unit. Check: The protocol was allocated to teams, not independently to each task.
- Preserve grouped observations. Check: Each task remains linked to its team exposure.
- Review analysis assumptions. Check: Any independence or effective-sample claim is justified separately; twelve rows alone are not twelve assignments.
Questions about this workflow
Can all twelve observations still be retained?
Yes. Grouping and appropriate interpretation are the issue, not deleting useful records.
Does team assignment prove randomness?
No. The actual assignment method also needs documentation.
Does this create tasks in the product?
No. The brief is a manual planning resource. Use the product access link to check onboarding and the workflows available in your account.
