System file list
“60 files to review”
The starting point for this example
This list gathers the files the system works with. It helps you know what to review before changing it.
Confirm the right files are there and that no important part is missing.
Scope of this view: Example taken from the application. This walkthrough explains the work; it does not modify any system.

How a change is saved
“From request to record”
A walkthrough to discuss with the people who use it
The example follows plant management: create a plant, change its data or delete it. The system asks for confirmation and logs what happened.
Ask the people who use it whether these steps match their daily work.
Scope of this view: Example taken from the application. This walkthrough explains the work; it does not modify any system.

Read the simplified flow
The third rule: only an affirmative confirmation lets you continue
“Yes: continue · No: stop”
A rule the new version must keep
The third card says only Yes allows saving or deleting. A negative answer or cancel stops the operation.
Verify that the new version also honors every answer.

What changes first and what waits for later
“First: two parts”
Plants and Postal Codes
In this case, the work starts with Plants and Postal Codes. Configuration and the change log are left for a later stage.
Agree on where to start and how the parts not yet changed will keep working.

Build status: progress and pending screens
“9 screens pending”
The panel shows 0 of 9 screens with code
The right panel shows nine pending screens. The left one shows that one of the two internal parts is already prepared.
Complete the pending parts and test the flow end to end before calling it done.
Scope of this view: A part that compiles has passed a technical check. It does not prove the whole system works correctly.
