Refuse a quantity-like duplicate list

  1. Start a manifest check

    Start a manifest check.

    Check distinct IDs against a reviewed local list. This synthetic lesson never confirms physical contents or despatch.

  2. Choose a repeated-ID file

    Choose a repeated-ID file.

    This synthetic file repeats SKU-1. It must be refused rather than converted into a quantity.

  3. Map the exact ID column

    Map the exact ID column.

    Choose Label for the carton IDs. Leading zeroes remain significant.

  4. Map the descriptions

    Map the descriptions.

    Choose Text for the description. The Ignore column stays outside the retained snapshot.

  5. Name the manifest snapshot

    Name the manifest snapshot.

    Give this reviewed snapshot a recognisable name. A name and date are local context, not verified authority.

  6. Confirm distinct physical IDs

    Confirm distinct physical IDs.

    Confirm that every row is a distinct carton, pallet or serial ID, never a repeated SKU representing a quantity.

  7. Refuse duplicate manifest IDs

    Refuse duplicate manifest IDs.

    The real manifest validator rejects duplicate IDs atomically. Choose the valid practice list to continue.

  8. Choose the prepared manifest

    Choose the prepared manifest.

    The prepared CSV enters the real file input. Each listed carton has its own exact ID; this is not a quantity list.

  9. Map the exact ID column

    Map the exact ID column.

    Choose Label for the carton IDs. Leading zeroes remain significant.

  10. Map the descriptions

    Map the descriptions.

    Choose Text for the description. The Ignore column stays outside the retained snapshot.

  11. Name the manifest snapshot

    Name the manifest snapshot.

    Give this reviewed snapshot a recognisable name. A name and date are local context, not verified authority.

  12. Declare the list date

    Declare the list date.

    This declared source date does not prove that a manifest is current.

  13. Confirm distinct physical IDs

    Confirm distinct physical IDs.

    Confirm that every row is a distinct carton, pallet or serial ID, never a repeated SKU representing a quantity.

  14. Load the reviewed manifest

    Load the reviewed manifest.

    The real reader validates three unique IDs and keeps only the mapped columns. A pallet ID never implies its child cartons were checked.

  15. Keep 17 separate from 000017

    Keep 17 separate from 000017.

    The value 17 is not the listed 000017. Unexpected IDs satisfy no listed carton and remain separate from missing IDs.

  16. Review coverage and exceptions

    Review coverage and exceptions.

    Review missing, unexpected and repeated observations independently before finishing or exporting.
