The operating problem
Make the queue easier to inspect
Missing fields, unreadable attachments, and inconsistent naming make downstream review slower and weaken the evidence trail.
The starting scope is documented around your systems, existing controls, and reviewer capacity. The role prepares records and follows the queue without taking authority that belongs to finance.
