Table · reads decision
Decision log
Choices + rationale.
Rows and columns, sortable and filterable.
What it does
Behaviours, not fields. Choosing between two modules is choosing between these.
Records what was rejected, which is the column people skip and the one that pays.
Stops the same option being re-proposed every six months by somebody who was not there.
Dated and attributed, so the context of a decision survives the people who made it.
How it works
- 1
A decision is recorded when it is made, with the alternative that lost.
- 2
The rejected column is required, because without it the same option is re-proposed every six months.
- 3
Entries are immutable; a reversal is a new decision referring to the old one.
- 4
The agent surfaces a relevant past decision when the same subject comes up.
Best for
Comparing many records across many fields.
Not the right choice for
A phone. A table is the first thing that stops working narrow.
What a row holds
Every field, and what the agent listens for to fill it — which is the difference between a page you type into and one that fills itself.
| Field | Type | Filled from |
|---|---|---|
| Decisionrequired | text | What was decided, stated as the thing now true. |
| Daterequired | date | When. Without it the record cannot be read in order. |
| Byrequired | text | Who made it, so context survives the people who left. |
| Rejectedrequired | longtext | What was turned down and why. The column people skip and the one that pays. |
What it does not do
A module chosen for something it cannot do costs more than one that was never offered.
- No formal reversal link — a superseding decision has to say so in its own text.
- Nothing enforces that a decision was actually followed.
- No confidentiality levels, so a sensitive decision needs care about where it is recorded.
- Records what was decided, not whether it was right.
Before it works
What you have to provide, if anything.
- Nothing.
- Record the rejected option even when it feels obvious. That is the entry future-you needs.
In practice
A team that had debated couriers three times in a year.
“We are doing our own delivery, not a courier. Cost per drop is the reason.”
What the agent built
A decision with the date, who made it and the rejected alternative.
What changed
It came up again in November and took two minutes instead of an afternoon, because the cost-per-drop reasoning was written down.
Better with
These do a different job on the same data. An agent can have all of them.
Meetings produce commitments and those commitments currently evaporate between the room and the inbox.
You are gathering evidence over time and need to keep hunches visibly separate from things you actually know.
The same situations recur and get handled differently depending on who is on shift.
Questions
What data does the Decision log page use?
It reads decision records the agent has collected. Choices + rationale. Nothing has to be imported first — the page appears once there is something to show.
Do I have to build or configure it?
No. You describe what you need in a sentence and the agent chooses the view and fills it. Custom pages exist for the cases no built-in view covers, and those are reviewed before they go live.
When is a table the wrong choice?
A phone. A table is the first thing that stops working narrow. It is best for: comparing many records across many fields.
Does it stay up to date?
Yes. The page is a view over the data rather than a copy of it, so anything the agent learns afterwards shows up without a rebuild or a re-import.
