Review amendments and linked replacements

Account for every affected unit before accepting changed requirements or authorising a remake.

Review edition · 25 October 2026 · For Supervisor

On this page

A later source revision can affect work already prepared, issued or physically completed. Importing it is not proof that earlier instructions stopped. Supervisor must review the exact impact.

Start from the candidate and current work

Open the order in Orders and amendments and inspect the later candidate, current revision, holds and exposed packs. Establish what the receiver actually did and obtain independent reviews where the workflow requires them.

A pending newer source can stop earlier prepared work. Keep the relevant references together rather than issuing a replacement under a new, unrelated order identity.

Classify every affected unit

Under Holds, amendments and replacements, select Candidate revision and open Reconcile every affected unit. Use the offered reviewed classifications, such as compatible unchanged work, not issued, confirmed stopped/non-started, completed held, historical despatch or replacement required.

Choose according to evidence. A missing acknowledgement is not confirmation that work never started. Unknown physical work must remain held until its disposition is established.

Select Obligations explicitly cancelled by this source amendment only for the exact unfulfilled requirements the authoritative amendment removes. Record the reason and use Record amendment resolution.

Accept the reviewed change

Return to the source candidate and follow acceptance with its current rules and impact. If state changed after the impact review, the implementation can require a fresh review. Recheck rather than treating the previous classification as permanently valid.

Authorise a linked replacement

Where appropriate, open Authorise a replacement before fulfilment, select Original physical unit, and record the reason through Authorise replacement.

This replaces a physical attempt against the same unfulfilled obligation. It requires the reviewed disposition and receiver reconciliation that apply. It does not create permission to fulfil the customer's obligation twice or replace already fulfilled work through this pre-fulfilment path.

Keep old instructions accounted for

Retain the original unit, pack, revision and physical evidence. Send the team the current authorised references through its agreed process. A local amendment or a new pack cannot physically recall a file already downloaded by another person.
