01
Company identity
Chinese legal name, Unified Social Credit Code, registry existence, operating status, business scope and registration profile.
Public methodology · Version 1.0
One transaction. Fifteen checks. One explicit payment decision.
The method is designed to answer a narrower question than a conventional company report: do the legal entity, transaction documents and proposed payment route reconcile well enough for this payment to proceed?
Three evidence layers
02
Transaction identity
PI or contract issuer, product, amounts, dates, contact details, visible seals and inconsistencies between document versions.
03
Payment identity
Marketplace or direct-payment route, beneficiary name, jurisdiction, third-party relationship evidence, changed-account warnings and payment controls.
15fixed checks

Evidence states
Unknown is not converted into “safe.”
A source directly supports the fact being tested.
The compared records agree without a material contradiction.
The available evidence cannot support a positive conclusion.
The records materially disagree.
The check does not apply to the stated transaction.
Decision logic
The report does not hide the next action inside a score.
No critical contradiction
Apply every listed payment and inspection control before transfer.
Evidence is missing or repairable
Do not pay until the named evidence or correction has been received.
Material contradictions remain
Do not pay. Obtain specialist review or select another supplier.
Automation with accountability
Software assists; a reviewer owns the verdict.
Automation may assist with text extraction, Chinese–English translation, name normalisation, field comparison and report drafting. Critical discrepancies, uncertain Chinese evidence and any proposed override are reviewed by a person. A final report requires a named approver and a written reason for any override.
Change control: a later change to the beneficiary, contracting entity, amount or payment instructions requires a new confirmation. The original report cannot be carried across to a materially different payment.
Inspect the output, not just the promise.
Open fictional examples of all three possible decisions.
