Explanation
The BA updated the user story status on a spreadsheet that the development team could not access - meaning the user stories were saved outside of a shared repository. The development team had no visibility into which stories were approved and ready to build. The definition of done (B) is about completion criteria, not discoverability. Linking to incorrect process maps (C) is unrelated to the team's inability to find ready stories. The core issue is a collaboration and tool problem: status was tracked in an inaccessible location.
