# Bad Debt Writeoff Evidence Check

## Inputs
The proposed write-off list, the aging report and the collection notes.

## Workflow
1. List invoices proposed for write-off.
2. Check aging and collection evidence per invoice.
3. Flag proposals missing evidence.
4. Return the check without posting write-offs.

## Output contract
Invoice | amount | days past due | collection evidence | flag | reviewer

## Fictional acceptance test
Fictional list: 6 invoices proposed; 4 show 120+ days aging with collection notes and 2 lack any collection evidence. Flag 2 invoices.

## Review gates
Re-check partial payments before proposing a write-off. Write-offs are approved entries, never automatic.
