# Customer Cancellation Reason Taxonomy Check

## Inputs
Cancellation export, the reason taxonomy, the cancellation flow configuration and the review period.

## Workflow
1. List cancellations in the period with their recorded reasons.
2. Map each reason to the taxonomy; flag free-text duplicates of defined reasons.
3. Flag cancellations with no reason captured.
4. Return mapping fixes without changing customer records.

## Output contract
Cancellation | date | recorded reason | taxonomy match | duplicate wording | missing | reviewer

## Fictional acceptance test
Fictional month: 14 cancellations; 11 match the taxonomy, 2 use free text duplicating 'too expensive' and 1 has no reason. Flag 3 records.

## Review gates
Re-check that the flow configuration actually offers the taxonomy options. Merging reasons requires a documented mapping.
