When does this happen?
IF Cross-tenant audit trails become fragmented because fingerprints differ for identical logical events when raw messages contain volatile substrings like timestamps, UUIDs, percentages, or numbers.
How others solved it
THEN Implement a mandatory normalization pipeline that substitutes volatile substrings with stable placeholders (e.g., '<ts>', '<uuid>', '<n>') before hashing. The order of substitution matters: replace percentages before bare numbers and timestamps before generic numbers. This ensures the same logical event produces the same fingerprint across tenants, enabling accurate aggregation.
