Review procedure

These are suggested operational checks to apply to your own evidence. They are not additional legal requirements or claims that the workspace automates this entire task.

Step 1

Record part numbers, host models and revision-specific compatibility claims.

Step 2

Ask for the source supporting fit, intended use and any restrictions.

Step 3

Compare the listing's compatibility wording with that evidence.

Step 4

Keep incompatible or unresolved host versions out of the approved compatibility list pending review.

Worked example

A seller offers replacement lids for two generations of a heated appliance, but the supplier sheet names only the older version.

What the reviewer finds

  • The newer host version is not mentioned in the supplied sheet.
  • The listing currently claims compatibility with all models.

Resulting record

A part-to-host compatibility evidence table.
