Correction Modes¶
Choose between bulk auto-correct and line-by-line review.
Two Correction Modes¶
Auto-Correct All (Bulk Mode)¶
Apply all AI-suggested corrections at once.
Best For: - ✅ High-confidence AI suggestions - ✅ Large number of errors - ✅ Time-sensitive corrections - ✅ Non-sensitive data
Process: 1. Review list of corrections to be applied 2. Click "Apply All Corrections" 3. System applies all fixes automatically 4. File is re-validated 5. Download corrected file
Time: 5-15 seconds total
Line-by-Line Review¶
Review and decide on each error individually.
Best For: - ✅ Sensitive data (SSNs, personal info) - ✅ Quality control requirements - ✅ Learning/training purposes - ✅ Compliance needs
Process: 1. Review first error 2. Choose action for each error: - ✅ Accept: Use suggested correction - ⏭️ Skip: Leave as-is, move to next - 📝 Edit: Enter custom value - 🔄 Apply to All: Use for all similar errors 3. Repeat for remaining errors 4. Generate corrected file 5. Download corrected file
Time: 30 seconds - 5 minutes (depends on error count)
Action Options (Line-by-Line)¶
Accept Suggestion¶
Use the AI-suggested correction.
When to Use: - Suggestion looks correct - High confidence from AI - Standard field format
Example:
Skip Error¶
Leave field as-is, move to next error.
When to Use: - No good suggestion available - Need to verify data externally - Will fix manually later
Note: Skipped errors remain in final file
Edit Custom Value¶
Provide your own correction.
When to Use: - AI suggestion is incorrect - You have the correct value - Specific business requirement
Example:
Apply to All Similar Errors¶
Use same correction for all matching errors.
When to Use: - Same employer data across all records - Repeated formatting issue - Standard value applies to all
Example:
10 errors for: EMPLOYER-CITY
Current: (empty)
Suggested: New Orleans
Action: Apply to All 🔄
Result: All 10 fixed with "New Orleans"
Time Saver
"Apply to All" can fix dozens of errors with one click!
