DV Quick Run Mini RCA (Experimental)

Question: What operational explanation best fits the available evidence?

Subject: Account · TIMELINE-MOCK

Mini RCA is experimental, deterministic, and evidence-backed. Explain assists. Evidence decides.

Evidence49%LowEvidence completeness

Correlation91%Very HighCross-evidence agreement

Executive Summary

No dominant contributor confirmed

DVQR analysed 5 snapshots and 4 intervals and found Automation Participation to be the strongest bounded explanation. The conclusion remains bounded to the available evidence.

Readiness is advisory and does not certify truth, causality, completeness, remediation, or operational authority.

Investigation Objective

Explain the operational pattern most consistent with the available understanding evidence for Account.

Experimental Boundary

Mini RCA is experimental and advisory. It does not prove exact change time, root cause, remediation status, deployment correctness, or operational authority.

Investigation Story

Mini RCA reviewed 5 snapshots across 4 intervals and summarised 38 timeline events.

Automation Participation is the leading operational explanation for Account.

Configuration Drift remains visible as a competing contributor at 24%, below Automation Participation at 100%.

Correlation is strong at 91%, but evidence confidence is 49%, so the explanation should be treated as probable rather than conclusive.

Use the evidence references as the source-of-truth: Mini RCA explains the pattern; it does not prove exact change time, runtime causality, remediation status, or operational authority.

Automation Participation

100%

Automation or execution participation changed during the reconstructed investigation window. These observations identify operational participation, but do not prove runtime causality. Supported by 5 evidence observations.

Account Create Validation plugin state changed (Enabled → Disabled)
Account SIT Enrichment Dispatch added in target
Account Update Integration Dispatch execution pipeline changed

View linked evidence (5 visible observations; 5 technical references)

Account Create Validation plugin state changed (Enabled → Disabled) — Observed plugin step registration metadata differs across snapshots. Use this as runtime behaviour orientation, not as root-cause certainty. First observed between 2026-06-16T06:20:23.405Z → 2026-06-16T06:31:26.106Z.
Account SIT Enrichment Dispatch added in target — Target-only plugin step registration. Treat this as runtime behaviour context, not deployment validation. First observed between 2026-06-16T06:20:23.405Z → 2026-06-16T06:31:26.106Z.
Account Update Integration Dispatch execution pipeline changed — Observed plugin step registration metadata differs across snapshots. Use this as runtime behaviour orientation, not as root-cause certainty. First observed between 2026-06-16T06:20:23.405Z → 2026-06-16T06:31:26.106Z.

Configuration Drift

24%

Configuration references evolved during the reconstructed investigation window. These observations indicate environmental or application configuration changes, but do not prove runtime correctness or deployment outcome. Supported by 1 evidence observation.

Account Change Tracking Enabled changed: false → true

View linked evidence (1 visible observation; 1 technical reference)

Account Change Tracking Enabled changed: false → true — Entity change tracking configuration differs across snapshots. Change tracking may affect integration, synchronization, and delta-observation behaviour, but DVQR does not infer runtime impact or remediation scope. First observed between 2026-06-16T06:31:26.106Z → 2026-06-16T07:23:46.723Z.

Evidence Correlation

How the available evidence relates

These relationships are produced from explicit deterministic rules. They connect existing evidence; they do not create evidence or assert causation.

0 supports 0 reinforces 0 limits 0 contradicts

No deterministic relationships were identified between the available evidence.

This does not weaken the investigation; it indicates that the available observations were independent.

Next Investigation

Recommended Next Steps

Investigate the strongest contributor candidates separately

Start with Automation Participation and Configuration Drift; validate each contributor independently because the current evidence does not support a single dominant explanation.

The evidence distribution is non-dominant, so difference volume must not be converted into causal certainty.

Evidence: Account Create Validation plugin state changed (Enabled → Disabled) · Account SIT Enrichment Dispatch added in target · Account Update Integration Dispatch execution pipeline changed · Account Change Tracking Enabled changed: false → true

Review the strongest first-observed interval and adjacent intervals

Open Timeline Understanding and inspect the strongest first-observed interval together with the intervals immediately before and after it.

Snapshot reconstruction identifies an observed window, not an exact change time; adjacent intervals help test whether the pattern is isolated or repeated.

Evidence: DVQR Score density changed: 42 → 67 · Account Create Validation plugin state changed (Enabled → Disabled) · Account SIT Enrichment Dispatch added in target · Account Update Integration Dispatch execution pipeline changed

Review reconstruction candidates by capability

Use only evidence families that map to a DV ForgeLab reconstruction utility; Mini RCA guides investigation and does not perform remediation.

3 reconstruction-oriented evidence references are available.

Evidence: Power Pages Runtime Core changed from Managed → Unmanaged · Relationship no longer present in later snapshot: lk_accountbase_modifiedby (Account → SystemUser, ManyToOne) · human.operator.dev@example.com present only in source

Retrieve Audit evidence where available

Review Audit records inside the first-observed interval using an identity with the required Audit-read privileges.

Audit evidence unavailable: Timeline findings remain valid, but audit evidence would narrow the first-observed window when available.

Keep the conclusion bounded to the available evidence

Verify the leading pattern against runtime, deployment, Audit, or operational evidence before making remediation decisions.

Recommendations guide the next investigation step; they do not prove root cause or authorise a change.
