Table 10Which pipeline-hygiene questions belong in this owner?
| Search question | What this owner adds | Smallest honest boundary |
|---|---|---|
pipeline hygiene formula | A declared admission ratio with scope, grain, tests, and dispositions visible | A local control convention, not a universal cleanliness score |
pipeline hygiene vs opportunity hygiene | The portfolio-view boundary versus the row-level opportunity record checks | A comparison of objects, not a performance verdict |
how to interpret pipeline hygiene | A reading of admitted, held, excluded, stale, duplicate, and unsupported states | Interpretation remains tied to the decision and date |
pipeline hygiene dashboard | Fields for current stage, evidence, freshness, value, close-date movement, and next event | Instrumentation, not a forecast or win-rate result |
pipeline hygiene data requirements | Identity, account link, owner, stage evidence, timestamps, amount, currency, and exception data | A decision-specific data contract, not a claim that every view needs every field |
pipeline hygiene checklist | A review sequence from scope and identity through exception routing and rule version | A review aid, not a quality certification |
