# Flexible Working Request Evidence Map

Map a flexible working request against each documented handling step before a decision is defended.

## Scope
Preparation and review only. No account action or professional decision.

## Inputs
Flexible working policy steps and the records for one request.

## Workflow
1. List the documented steps for handling a request.
2. Match each step to a dated record.
3. Flag steps with no record.
4. Return the evidence map without contacting the requester.

## Output contract
request | step | required | recorded | missing

## Fictional acceptance test
Fictional policy lists 6 handling steps for a request and the file shows 4 of them: 2 steps have no record, so the decision trail is incomplete.

## Review gates
Keep original values, source IDs and version dates. Unknown facts stay held. Use qualified review for hiring, legal and accounting conclusions. No send, share, sign-in, scheduling, ledger change or payment. Fictional contract review is not a live account compatibility test.
