Quick answer
Yes, and deliberately so. AllDone stores its own recommendation alongside the answer that was recorded, so a divergence is a fact on the file, not something the reviewer has to notice. At Completion each such decision carries a "Diverged from recommendation" badge, and the review document lists every decision including the superseded ones.
Where the reviewer sees it
The Completion review screen groups every recorded decision by how much attention it needs. Statutory decisions, anything at or above materiality, risk-flagged items and answers that moved since the preliminary review sit at the top. A decision that went the other way from the recommendation keeps its badge wherever it sits, including a routine item below materiality: the badge is the point, so it is not promoted or hidden.
Each entry shows the figures, what AllDone read, what was chosen, the note that was typed, and what it caused: the posting, or the account it was re-pointed to.
The decisions that carry the most weight
Some answers are a deliberate step past a warning: proceeding when the records check said stop, continuing without a bank statement, disclosing nothing where a disclosure was raised, accepting a difference against last year. Those options require a written reason before they save, and several of them also raise a blocker at sign-off that has to be waived on the record rather than simply passed.
Why the preparer is not penalised for it
A recommendation is a starting point from the evidence AllDone has. The preparer often knows something AllDone does not, which is exactly what the reason line captures. The file is stronger for showing the recommendation, the choice and the reason together than it would be if only the final answer survived.
