If the official signals 2 (or 3) and the book writes it down as such, then this is a CE and must be fixed within the time-frame.

If the official signals a 2 (or 3) and the book writes it down as a 3 (or 2), then this is a scorekeeping error and can be fixed at any time.

Some mechanics have the "2 to a 3 or 3 to a 2" correction be done immediately by the off official with no discussion. Blow the whistle, inform the table (and everyone else) of the change, get the ball back in play.

Some mechanics have the discussion.

It's been argued passionately on this board several times. Most of us should just do what ever is common in our locations / leagues.
