File-Level Balancing and Totals

    Why pre-send validation prevents rejects and consumer impact.

    Preventive controls

    Implement preflight checks that verify counts, numeric totals, and field constraints before sending. Small, automated checks reduce downstream rejections and rework.

    Golden sources

    Pick a golden source for balances, limits, and dates to avoid reconciling two diverging systems. If you must merge, define deterministic rules and log every override.

    Operational loop

    Track rejects by reason, fix upstream logic, and re-run preflight. Close the loop with an issue tracker so repeated causes drop over time.
