Compliance Glossary for Confluence

How do I prove where a term is used?

Usage evidence links a governed term to indexed page observations produced by a completed scan. Production v6 can preserve the page identity, page revision, scan state, glossary revision, and approved usage records available to the app. This proves recorded observations in scope. It does not prove every possible use across unscanned or inaccessible content.

How it works

  1. Approve the governed term.
  2. Run Compliance Scanner for the required space.
  3. Open the page status or usage evidence.
  4. Confirm the page and glossary revisions.
  5. Review coverage and stale-state indicators.
  6. Freeze the usage evidence when release-bound proof is required.

Example

An auditor asks where “critical supplier” appeared at release time. The deposited baseline links the approved meaning to recorded page usages and exact revisions. Pages outside the selected scope remain outside that claim.

What this does not mean

Usage proof is bounded by scanned content, access, indexing, and selected baseline scope. It is not arbitrary full-text search and cannot establish use in unavailable sources.
