POA source-sync reconciliation

POA is refusing to invent truth.

Shopify can signal active preorder demand. Only Cin7 can supply the order structure required for allocation truth. The remaining 265 rows are upstream source exceptions, not missed POA imports.

The contract in one view

Evidence enters. Truth must pass a gate.

Select any outcome to see what it means. The flow uses compact cards that size to their content; there is no nested diagram frame.

Demand signal

Shopify evidence starts the review

Shopify confirms that customer-facing preorder demand is active. That matters operationally, but it cannot supply the Cin7 order structure POA needs for allocation truth.

Scope: 265 rowsPolicy: review, do not import blindly

What happens next

The exceptions already have owners.

This is no longer a POA source-sync blocker. It is upstream evidence and order-flow cleanup.

91Current Cin7 preorder evidence reviewCheck whether current Cin7 evidence should be corrected upstream or treated as an expected exclusion.

76Historical Shopify/Cin7 contradictionResolve historical evidence conflicts and clarify which system reflects the valid lifecycle state.

39Live Shopify active, Cin7 absentTreat as confirmed live gaps. All 39 still show active Shopify demand and zero matching Cin7 references.

59Likely old open-order cleanupReview as historical cleanup unless Lifely explicitly decides the pattern is an expected exclusion.

Decision brief

POA source-sync is not blocked. The July 9 reconciliation classified 265 Shopify-active preorder mismatches as upstream source exceptions: 167 exact Cin7 orders with no parsed preorder line evidence, 98 absent Cin7 SalesOrder references, and 0 POA missed-import bugs. Next step: review the four resolution buckets and decide which patterns need an upstream fix, an expected exclusion, or a clarified source contract.

Ready for a stakeholder note or the next discussion.
