Help me write this decision down. I decided and you draft the note for the team. Two blocks: what is already decided and the options that are still open. The reason only if it is in the note. Do not choose an open option. Do not add an option I did not write. Do not send it to anyone. Decision: [paste what was decided and what is still open]
A week later nobody remembers what was decided and what was not.

We decided not to change this week's order. It is still open whether the next order uses the long pipe or the short one. I did not write the reason.

In three steps
- Separate decided and open.
- Reason only if it is written.
- Do not choose an open option.
A tip What is open stays open. Do not close it so the note looks finished.
