Catalog Check Results
Severity Issue What to do

A skipped lot number can create bid clerk and settlement confusion.
Confirm whether lot 214 should be restored or renumber the adjacent lots before publishing.

Two records point to the same public lot number.
Assign a unique lot number to one record and re-export the catalog.
