Records and local rule
Original fictional draft D1 has quantity 3, agreed rate HKD 100 and recorded line total 400. The local draft process permits a corrected revision before issue. There are no discounts, tax, payment or other lines in this example.
| Field | D1 value | Evidence |
|---|---|---|
| Quantity | 3 | Agreed scope |
| Unit rate | 100 | Agreed rate |
| Recorded total | 400 | Draft; inconsistent |
Process the recorded case
- Confirm the document is still a draft
- Recalculate from agreed inputs
- Create the corrected draft revision
- Review the corrected total before issue
If a source quantity or rate is disputed, clarify that input rather than forcing the total to match.
Check the outcome
What corrected line total and difference follow?

3×100=300. The recorded draft is 100 too high; corrected revision is 300, with the old draft change reference retained.
