premise :- data integrity is larger issue beyond non-compliance to SOP.
an Observation on documentation could be related to any of the aspects of ALCOA+ good documentation practices (GDP) ;
and the question is :- when do we treat GDP as an non-compliance to SOP
vs
an data-integrity issue. should we consider viz.,
1. multiple instances within and across documents and personnel during the audit
2. repeat observations across the audits ( ineffective capa)
3. SOP or training is deficient to outline the requirement
