Serial mismatch troubleshooting
Serial mismatches happen due to label variations, OCR errors, or vendor formatting. Use a verification workflow to fix them safely.
If a serial mismatch shows up during checks or imports, don’t guess—treat it as a verification task.
Compare the captured label image, normalize formatting, and document what was corrected.
Key points
- Compare against the label image
- Normalize formatting consistently
- Document corrections in notes
