Data Issues

The Data issues page surfaces findings from the solver’s data audit — both structural mismatches caught before the solve ran and observations only knowable from the returned plan (for example, demand left unmet beside idle inventory). Fixing these removes misleading unmet-demand rows from the plan. Navigate to Data issues under the Supply Chain group in the sidebar. The subtitle counts the findings from the latest solve, and a badge next to the title flags findings that are new since the last plan.

Filtering findings

The filter row above the list offers:
  • Search — free-text across findings.
  • Severity — a multi-select of Errors, Warnings, and Info.
  • Category — a multi-select of the finding categories present in the current audit (missing suppliers, production with no consumer, and so on).
  • SKU and Location filters — shown when the audit’s findings reference SKUs or locations. The location label follows your organization’s terminology.
A counter shows how many findings match (“N of M”), and Expand all / Collapse all toggles every section at once.

Reading a finding

Findings are grouped by category so you can triage one class at a time. Each section header shows the category name, its finding count, and severity badges (errors, warnings, info). Sections start collapsed; expanding one renders its cards, with a Show N more findings control for very large categories. Each finding card carries:
  • A severity badge (Error, Warning, or Info) and a headline naming the entities involved.
  • An explanation of what the audit detected and why it matters.
  • A scope row of label:value pairs (SKU, location, candidate suppliers, and so on) — long lists open in a popover.
  • A Suggested fix where the audit can state one, and mechanical fix actions where the issue is fixable in place.
Severity is a triage signal: Errors are structural problems that distort the plan (fix these first), Warnings are likely problems worth confirming, and Info findings are observations that may be intentional.

Dismissing findings

Each card has a Dismiss button. Dismissing removes the finding from the list and shows a toast:
Dismissed — Returns to the queue if the next solve re-flags it.
The toast carries an Undo action that restores the finding immediately.
Unlike recommendation dismissals (a 14-day set-aside), a dismissed finding stays gone unless the next solve’s audit flags it again. If the underlying condition persists, it will keep coming back — which is the point: a recurring finding is one you should fix rather than dismiss.

Best practices

An error-level finding (a SKU with no supplier, a location outside the network) usually shows up downstream as unexplained unmet demand. Fix errors, re-solve, then judge the plan.
Findings within a category share a root cause and usually a fix. Expanding one section and clearing it end to end beats bouncing across a flat list.
Dismiss is for findings that describe deliberate choices (a SKU you intentionally don’t stock somewhere). If a finding re-appears each solve and isn’t intentional, fix the data instead.
New findings after a configuration change are the fastest signal that the change had unintended structural side effects.
