## Guides and help pages

- [Decide how two files identify the same material](https://help.smartfact.ai/tracebench/guides/connect-records): Withdraw a prepared declaration, confirm one pair and deliberately declare two shared material numberings.
- [Follow a lot forwards and a shipment backwards](https://help.smartfact.ai/tracebench/guides/follow-records): Read real row evidence, separate relevant gaps from project warnings and choose an exact record and source.
- [Keep reports, history and a complete backup](https://help.smartfact.ai/tracebench/guides/keep-results): Download genuine PDF and both CSV formats, preserve an earlier trace after withdrawal, and restore a validated full project.
- [Prepare a file and declare what its columns mean](https://help.smartfact.ai/tracebench/guides/prepare-files): Read a refusal, map exact identities, declare where the records came from, time zone and sequence coverage, and preserve uncertainty.
