# Independent reproduction protocol SMA-FLIP-20260831

**Published:** 2026-08-31  
**Status:** Open protocol; no qualifying independent report received as of 2026-08-31

1. Disclose identity, affiliation, compensation, conflicts, data rights, retailer type, systems, currencies, accounting framework, and materiality.
2. Freeze order/line/SKU grains, price and discount rules, tax, dated COGS, fee columns, return lag, exclusions, and contribution formula.
3. Preserve missing-cost lines; test duplicate promotions, refund parents, bundles, cost vintages, currencies, fee completeness, and source-total reconciliation.
4. Publish safe aggregates, query/code, data dictionary, coverage, sensitivity checks, failures, and limitations.
5. Obtain qualified finance/accounting review before describing outputs as accounting margin; hold spend and reorder actions until evidence supports them.

A qualifying report must be authored outside InfiniSynapse, use independently controlled data, expose reproducible calculations, and document review. Running the first-party output checker alone does not qualify.
