Before you start
- A workspace with an active Test environment
- A draft exists and has been reviewed (compile issues resolved, coverage checked)
- Calibration cases have been resolved (the Book is no longer in Needs calibration state)
You can verify Statements at any time — even before all calibration cases are resolved. But the Book cannot publish until every material rule is verified.
What the Verify page shows
The page has two areas:- Totals — Three counts: total rules, verified rules, and remaining rules to verify.
- Statement groups — Rules grouped by type, each shown as a plain-language sentence with its provenance chip and verification status.
Totals
The Book cannot publish while any material rule remains unverified.
Statement groups
Statements are grouped by type. Each group shows how many rules are verified and how many are waiting. Within each group, every rule appears as:- A plain-language sentence — the rule in words you can understand, not JSON or a formula
- A provenance chip — how the rule came to be
- A verification status chip — whether the rule is verified, needs verification, or is unsupported
Provenance chips on Verify
The same four provenance classes appear here:Verification status
Source and provenance detail
Each rule can be expanded to show its source and provenance detail — the specific claims, inputs, or suggestions that produced it. If a rule has no source recorded, the detail reads: “No source recorded. This rule must be corrected before publication.”How to verify
Individual verification
Each group of pending rules has a Verify button. When a group can be verified as a whole (all its rules are rendered and functional), the button reads Verify N rules and verifies all pending rules in that group at once.Grouped verification
Verification is permitted in groups when the rules in a group mean the same kind of thing. This lets you verify related rules together — for example, all base prices for a service — rather than one at a time.When grouped verification is blocked
If a group contains an unsupported or rejected rule, the page reads: “Correct the unsupported or rejected rule before verifying this group.” You must go to Review draft and correct the rule before the group can be verified.Why blind approval is not offered
Kordless does not offer a “verify all” button that approves every rule at once. Each rule must be reviewed and verified explicitly, either individually or within a homogeneous group. This is deliberate:- A suggested value that looks correct may still be wrong.
- A rule extracted from your file may have been misread.
- A calculated value may rest on an assumption you did not intend.
Role requirements
Verification requires authorization to record verification decisions. If you do not have the required role, the page shows a permission message. Ask a workspace administrator to complete this step or grant you the necessary role.After verification
When every material rule is verified, the Book state advances to Verified draft or Ready to publish. The next action on the Book overview becomes Preview and publish.If it does not work
