What’s Included

  • Paste Generic Avails Here — the same 7-column OpenRights generic schema used across every avails template.
  • Scorecard — 7 automated checks with traffic-light status + a 0–100 quality score.
  • Rule Definitions — what each check tests for.

Checks Performed

  • Blank Title / Territory / Right / Start / End
  • End date before Start date
  • Exclusive field not in {Yes, No}

How to Use

  1. Paste your avails into Paste Generic Avails Here.
  2. Open Scorecard — everything recalculates.
  3. Fix FAIL rows until the score is 100.
  • Validate an Avails Sheet Against IFTA + EMA Rules (/tutorials/validate-avails-ifta-ema-rules)
  • Normalize Territory Codes (/tutorials/normalize-territory-codes)

Common Pitfalls

  • Blank counts lie on mixed date formats. Text dates count as “not blank” but still break the end-before-start check. Use ISO dates.
  • Territory vocabulary. The scorecard doesn’t enforce a territory whitelist — run the avails validator Apps Script for that.
