Category, source link or the evidence you need to check.

Build an Orient Score

Tick only what the current row actually shows. Missing information stays missing. The score never guesses.

What evidence does this row provide?

Select a check only when the current row or destination provides visible support for it.

A shortlist needs a reason, not another tab.

Name the decision.

Decide whether fit, finish, compatibility or shipping weight will determine the shortlist.

Read the evidence.

Use QC angles, measurements and source clues to find what the row proves and what it leaves blank.

Save with context.

Compare similar rows, copy the score summary and keep the uncertainty beside the reason to save.
