Decision Flowchart for NC System Entry and Auditability

This flowchart outlines the decision-making process for financial entry and auditability in the NC system following an incident. The process begins with the "occurrence of an incident" and branches into two main paths based on whether an "OA incident flash report" is submitted: if submitted, one can proceed with either "NC entry for third-party damage" (concluding the standard process) or "NC entry via pipeline modification" (ensuring future auditability); if not submitted, one can still choose "NC entry via pipeline modification" to guarantee auditability, whereas opting for "no NC entry" will ultimately result in the inability to audit the record. The chart clearly highlights that "NC entry via pipeline modification" is the critical step for ensuring the transaction remains auditable within the financial system.
