Anyone actually know what triggers a CU flag on adjustments?

I understand CU compares your adjustments against what other appraisers are using in the same market. What I don't understand is whether it's also comparing your current report against your own past reports. If I used $30/SF for GLA in January and $40/SF in June for a similar comp set in the same neighborhood, is CU catching that? Or does it only care about how I compare to the broader pool?

I'm asking because if it's tracking me against myself, that changes how I think about documentation.
 
My guess only is tracked against your own and others and things like GLA are usually lower than others are using in that market. My guess is your using similar adjustments that were used 20 years ago and lower than todays. But go look back in time and update adjustments to fit todays markets.
