The register only works if the rules below are applied to every row it contains.
Rules of use
- Completeness first: a material that touches food (classes 4–6 included) but is not listed is itself a finding.
- Purchases must match the register: name, brand and manufacturer as approved — a new brand of the same material is a change (use the change report).
- Exempted/positive-list materials (exempt from halal certification per current SJPH rules 🔎) still appear, with the exemption basis in the evidence column.
- Expiry radar: sort by “valid until”; any certificate expiring before the next audit is an action item.
- Re-verify at audit date: issuers must be on the live LHLN list at the time of audit.
- Status values:
cert/flowchart+statement/exempt/pending evidence/replaced.
