Cross-Field ValidationSTD_2030v1

Weight/Volume Consistency Check

Validates that weight and volume measurements are logically consistent based on known density ranges.

Owner: Unassigned

Updated: 10/31/2025

Business Rule

Implausible weight-volume ratios indicate measurement errors or data entry mistakes.

Technical Implementation

Calculate implied density. Flag if outside expected range for product type (e.g., steel: 7.5-8.0 g/cm³).

Examples

Good practices vs common violations

Good Examples

Steel: 1000kg for 0.13m³ (density ~7.7 g/cm³)

Poor Examples (Violations)

Steel: 100kg for 1m³ (density ~0.1 g/cm³ - impossible)
