Audit journal & annotations

The journal is where your judgement is recorded against an audit. It serves two purposes: it captures context the AI could not know, and it teaches future audits to respect your decisions.

Two kinds of journal entry

• Annotations — notes a member attaches to a specific finding, recommendation or plan item (for example "we already tried this" or "this is intentional").
• Journal entries — broader clarifications and deferrals recorded against the audit (for example "ignore brand campaigns, they are managed separately").

The Journal view under Insights merges both so you have one record of the conversation around an audit.

Why use it

• Correct the record — mark a finding as not applicable, with your reason.
• Defer, do not lose — park a recommendation for later without it nagging you.
• Build memory — your notes become prior-audit context the next audit reads.

How to add entries

Open a finding, recommendation or plan item and add an annotation, or record a journal entry against the audit. Entries are scoped to your organisation and visible to your team.
