A consistent record, object by object

Reuse the questions.
Review each object afresh.

Several objects may need the same record checks: a clear photograph of the base, dimensions with units, or a note describing visible condition. Rewriting those checks takes time. Copying another object’s completed status would tell the wrong story.

Use an existing object as the starting point

Open Reuse checks from another object in the notebook. Choose a source object and a different target, then select just the checks relevant to the target. The tool copies each selected wording and its original-required flag. It does not copy photographs, documents, linked evidence, review status, history, amounts or private fields.

Read the wording before appending

Review every new check and the target’s name. A check mentioning a particular maker, material or damage may need editing after it is added. Matching wording on the target or within the selected batch is flagged. It remains in the preview and is appended if you confirm; nothing is silently merged or removed.

Existing target checks remain unchanged. Each new check receives a new identifier, starts unreviewed and has no linked original. The target can contain at most thirty checks. A batch that would exceed this limit is refused as a whole.

Link the target’s own evidence

After appending, open each new check, adjust its wording if needed and link originals belonging to this object. Mark it reviewed only after your review. A check that requires an original needs both review and a linked file to count as complete.

Keep the changes deliberately

Appending changes the current in-memory collection. Save in this browser or download a full private backup to retain it. Cancelling the append leaves the collection unchanged. Changing the collection or selection clears the prior review so you can inspect the current request.

What completion means

The notebook records your checklist process. Reusing checks does not transfer provenance, certify authenticity, establish ownership or determine value. Keep observations distinct from claims, and preserve the original documents that support your own records.
