Describe the discrepancy precisely
Does the supplied scan-body identification differ from the case note? Does the selected library label differ from the named component? Is the receiving team requesting a different production component? These are distinct observations; a generic “implant mismatch” obscures the next action.
Keep the current package and selection visible while the identification is resolved. Do not substitute a visually similar library or infer compatibility from a broad implant brand name. The exact supported component chain must be verified by the responsible team.
Build an identification comparison
| Entry | Evidence to compare |
|---|---|
| Physical identification | Part information supplied by the responsible submitting/component team. |
| Digital selection | Named library/component selection in the current design state. |
| Production intention | Receiving workflow and intended manufacturing component. |
| Disagreement | The specific fields or instructions that conflict. |
| Decision owner | Who can verify the intended supported chain and resolve the discrepancy. |
The record should preserve unknowns. A blank identification field is more honest than a guessed platform or part value that later appears authoritative.
Hold affected work and ask for verification
Illustrative request: “The case note and selected digital component do not identify the same intended chain. Please confirm the exact physical part and supported library before this output is released.” The request states an observation and dependency without diagnosing the clinical record.
Other independent work may be discussed if the assignment permits it, but component-dependent output should remain held. Record any partial work and its limits rather than labeling the whole case accepted.
Recheck dependent design after resolution
If the approved identification changes, ask which design, access, emergence and receiving checks need to be revisited. Carry earlier approvals forward only where the responsible reviewer confirms their scope remains applicable.
Issue a new revision and release manifest identifying the changed component information and superseded outputs. The goal is traceability; this guide does not provide component selection advice, a universal substitution list or a claim that all libraries are interchangeable.
