# You noticed a discrepancy: what does it establish?

This article considers an employee who sees an unclear expense or possible private interest. It distinguishes a specific fact, explanation, suspicion, conflict and established misappropriation, as well as access to funds and actual authority.

For workers, approvers, observers and relatives helping to clarify the question.

Inside:

- Does an amount discrepancy already prove misappropriation?
- Does being able to transfer funds mean being entitled to use them as your own?
- Are a family connection, conflict and corruption the same?
- Do observer, operator, decision maker and beneficiary have identical responsibility?
- Does repayment or correction close every issue?

All scenes are hypothetical. Guilt, applicable rules, entitlement to data, protected reporting and safe refusal are unestablished. Public service and private companies differ. No duty to investigate everything personally is imposed. Immediate danger needs appropriate urgent local help.
