What the documents look like
For product questions in Franchisee onboarding, this page examines FastGPT retrieval. Compare the material received with the sources used in the answer. The examples are hypothetical.
Constraints at the retrieval step
A new franchise-training SOP test states, “The demonstration drink uses a sample cup; the service container is listed in the opening-materials list.” A question about the demonstration cup and one about the customer’s container need different sources. Inspect candidates for the two roles, then compare modes with the full question. The SOP states a demonstration use, without specifying the actual service cup. Shared reference to a drink does not make both questions equivalent.
Configuration and implementation checks
| Documented item or implementation check | Material and condition | Evidence action |
|---|---|---|
| Source scope (implementation check) | Demonstration SOP, attendance note and materials list | A sample cup does not establish the service container. |
| Search modes: semantic, full-text, hybrid | Complete questions for the two uses | Inspect the scope supported by each mode. |
| Citation token limit | Reference to the service-materials list | Do not trim it to a cup description alone. |
| Minimum relevance | Check relevance under semantic search or reranking | Training hits do not establish complete service-material evidence. |
| Question optimization | Follow-up about service use of the sample cup | Preserve its role without inventing specifications. |
Documented conditions
| Documented item / implementation check | Condition |
|---|---|
Associated knowledge bases | Knowledge bases associated with one search node must use the same embedding model. |
Search mode | Semantic, full-text and hybrid modes are available. |
Citation limit | Citation limits are measured in tokens. |
Minimum relevance | Range 0–1; active for semantic search or reranking. |
Question optimization | Resolves references and expands questions. |
Three common errors
A proposed attendance note says a patterned cup was demonstrated. Using that statement to establish the sales container substitutes training wording for the materials list. Retain the original and returned source together. Also inspect citation token limits for omission of the reference to a separately listed service container, which can leave only a cup description. Preserve demonstration and service-source roles rather than selecting the earlier-ranked passage as one unified configuration. A third error expands demonstrated in the attendance note into learners having mastered normal preparation. Inspect actual assessment or operating records to distinguish a demonstration event from verified ability. A displayed cup and attendance do not establish that learning outcome.
How to verify the setup
Without the opening-materials list, the actual container specification needs a supplementary source. A pattern on a sample cup cannot provide capacity or material. For a follow-up about its service use, inspect whether optimization preserves the intended role without expanding a display item into sale contents. After obtaining the list, repeat the question and trace new citations, separating source updates from retrieval-setting changes. Check minimum relevance only where it applies; relevant training text does not establish complete service-material evidence.
