The idea in practice

A precise file reference prevents accidental work on an old copy. Give the assistant the reviewed version and distinguish a new draft from the file already approved for sharing.

Try the distinction on a real task

This is an illustrative request, not a customer result or a promise that every connected service supports every step.

Revise this named review copy and keep the previously approved version unchanged.

How to apply it

  • Identify the source version
  • State what may change
  • Review the new output before replacing or sharing it

What to check

Check filenames, dates and the specific source used.

A mistake to avoid

Do not infer that a file called final is the latest agreed version.

Using Bris for this work

Bris can help turn authorized source material into documents, spreadsheets and presentations. Name the source files and the intended reader. Ask for references and a review copy before sharing. A polished layout should make the evidence easier to inspect, not conceal uncertainty.
