- This issue occurs because the supplier may still be present in other tabs of the CDIF file, even if it has been removed from Tab 1 (Suppliers).
- The CDIF validation process considers data from all tabs, not just the Suppliers tab. If the supplier is referenced anywhere else in the file, it will continue to appear in the validation report and may still trigger normalization errors.
- Common tabs where the supplier might still exist include:
- Tab 2 – Part Sourcing
- Tab 6 – Site List
- Tab 8 – Part/Site Map
- Tab 10 – Multi-Tier Sourcing
- To fully resolve the issue, ensure the supplier is removed from all tabs where it is referenced, and then re-upload the CDIF file. Once completely removed, the supplier will no longer appear in the validation report.
