Key points
Finalise the name spelling consistency handoff
Use the applicant's confirmed spelling consistently in the application and labels, while preserving the wording of source records. Explain any legitimate variation rather than silently altering the original.
Useful context
Reconcile name spelling across the final rental file
The final check should distinguish a confirmed typo from a genuine source variation and leave original records intact.
This workflow deals with pack-wide consistency at final review, not correction of a single live field after follow-up.
Working checklist
Review name spelling consistency in a useful order
Record legitimate differences without rewriting the source and review the final uploaded version.
Use the checklist to connect name spelling consistency to the current person, property and source.
- Application name: use one reviewed rendering consistently across fields while preserving source spellings.
- Record name: distinguish the current name spelling consistency record from superseded copies.
- Explained difference: point to the exact spelling variation and its source instead of writing a general name-consistency statement.
- Attachment label: identify the reviewed file or version used for name spelling consistency.
- Final version: keep the selected filename and its visible contents aligned.

Practical example
Reconcile name spelling across the final rental file: worked example
The current application uses the renter's confirmed spelling, while an old reference contains one missing letter. The renter records the variation and does not alter the source letter.
