Regional dealer stock: upgrades for operations handover

Review upgrades for operations handover in Regional dealer stock. Check document scope, failure paths and source evidence through controlled tests.

What the documents look like

Regional dealer stock replenishment runs on daily rolling orders rather than seasonal bulk ordering. The working records are replenishment requests, inventory turnover sheets, outbound delivery notes and payment collection plans, drawn from dealer ERP, brand ordering systems, warehouse stock and sales receipts, with weekly and monthly update cycles. This page addresses one narrow question inside operations permissions and handover management during deployment and upgrading: what authorization state a given document, action or request holds at the moment of handover. A retrieval hit, a completed form field or a similarity score does not constitute authorization, and none of them triggers approval, a database write or an external synchronization.

Constraints at the upgrades step

A version upgrade can change how configuration is read, and the fields that permission judgments depend on can shift with it. Compare the current version against the target version and its upgrade notes rather than inferring present behavior from an older configuration name. AI Proxy has been a required dependency since V4.17.0: both the App and any Admin service that reuses App/Service configuration must set AIPROXY_API_ENDPOINT and a non-empty AIPROXY_API_TOKEN, and a missing item causes startup validation to fail. FILE_TOKEN_KEY, AES256_SECRET_KEY and INVOKE_TOKEN_SECRET are required at runtime. Since 4.15.0 the open source edition no longer reads config.json; an old volume mount must be removed and replaced with environment variables following the official mapping table.

Hypothetical drill sample: the handover material for one regional dealer reads, "Replenishment request number B-0714, requesting entity East China Region Two dealer, request date 14 July 2026, requested quantity 200 units, status field marked 'awaiting brand channel manager review', no signature and no approval time at the footer." The same batch includes "Outbound delivery note C-0715, delivery date 15 July 2026, quantity 150 units, receipt column blank." The draft sentence under review is, "This dealer has completed approval for 200 units of replenishment and completed handover of 150 units of outbound delivery." That sentence turns an awaiting-review status and a missing receipt record into completed facts, exceeding the evidence in the source text.

Configuration and implementation checks

The table lists only settings or implementation checks that the official documents describe and that bear on this page's primary task. The values are starting points for this hypothetical drill, not official defaults; the reason for each choice and the comparison method appear in the third column.

SYNC_INDEX and DB_MAX_LINK concern database and index maintenance and bear no direct relation to the permission handover judgment on this page, so they are excluded from the table.

Three common errors

  1. Reading "awaiting brand channel manager review" as granted authorization. In the sample the status field states awaiting review, and the footer carries no signature and no approval time. The inputs are the status field value, the signature column and the approval time; the comparison target is the evidence required for "approved"; the observable result is that none of the three shows approved evidence. The request sits in awaiting review and does not constitute approval.
  2. Treating the outbound quantity as identical to the requested quantity. In the sample the request is 200 units and the outbound note is 150 units. The inputs are the two quantity fields; the comparison target is whether the two values are equal; the observable result is that 150 and 200 differ. The quantity difference by itself says nothing about whether handover is complete, and the blank receipt column leaves the handover state unsupported.
  3. Substituting a retrieval hit or similarity score for a permission judgment. The input is a record and score returned by one retrieval; the comparison target is whether that record carries authorization fields; the observable result is that a score carries no subject, object or authorization scope. Retrieval does not perform authorization and does not exclude unauthorized records.

How to verify the setup

  1. Input the sample text "status field marked 'awaiting brand channel manager review', no signature and no approval time at the footer"; the comparison target is the signature and approval time evidence required for "approved"; the observable result is that both are absent. When this holds, the conclusion is awaiting review, written neither as approved nor as rejected.
  2. Input the sample text "requested quantity 200 units" and "quantity 150 units, receipt column blank"; the comparison target is the two quantity values and the content of the receipt column; the observable result is that the two values differ and the receipt column holds no record. When this holds, the conclusion is a quantity mismatch with handover unsupported by receipt evidence, and the evidence gap is retained.
  3. Input the draft sentence "This dealer has completed approval for 200 units of replenishment and completed handover of 150 units of outbound delivery"; the comparison target is what the sentence asserts against what the sample text supports; the observable result is that "completed approval" and "completed handover" both lack support in the source text. When this holds, the draft sentence is judged to exceed the evidence and must be rewritten to state awaiting review and handover unsupported by receipt evidence.
