Required enrichment gaps

Three target enrichments are not represented by a selected candidate in the bounded current model and require authoritative sourcing: Account.AccountGroup, Ledger.CostCentre and Ledger.CurrencyCode.

# Conclusion

Three required target columns need acquisition or sourcing. The consultant confirmed each gap and accepted it for phase-two scope. In this wiki, **gap** means no current candidate was identified inside the audited Desktop model; it does not mean the information is absent from all upstream systems.

## `Account.AccountGroup`

- **Target definition:** management reporting group above account type.
- **Type:** String.
- **Declared source:** account master / embedded mapping.
- **Current comparison:** no selected current candidate.
- **Decision:** confirm gap; `acquire_or_source`; accepted for phase-two scope.

An implementation design needs an authoritative account-level join key, effective-dating rules if classifications change, ownership and handling for unmapped accounts.

## `Ledger.CostCentre`

- **Target definition:** management cost-centre code.
- **Type:** String.
- **Declared source:** finance posting source / embedded reference data.
- **Current comparison:** no selected current candidate.
- **Decision:** confirm gap; `acquire_or_source`; accepted for phase-two scope.

The source grain must be resolved. A cost centre could be sourced directly per ledger posting or derived through governed reference data; the evidence does not decide between these options.

## `Ledger.CurrencyCode`

- **Target definition:** ISO reporting currency code.
- **Type:** String.
- **Declared source:** finance posting source.
- **Current comparison:** no selected current candidate.
- **Decision:** confirm gap; `acquire_or_source`; accepted for phase-two scope.

The currency design must be reconciled with `Ledger.SignedAmount`, which the target describes as an amount in reporting currency. It is unknown whether the current ledger is single-currency, already converted, or requires transaction/reporting currency separation.

## Reference-data caution

The workbook's hidden `Reference Data` sheet includes illustrative values for all three concepts. The workbook instructions prevent treating that sheet automatically as the target declaration. It must not be promoted to a production source without confirmation of completeness, keys, governance and ownership.
