  3. 03Correct the missing, invalid, duplicate, or inconsistent value before submitting to UCDP.
  4. 04Use the official Single-family (SF1) sample value on this page as a reference pattern, then re-run validation.

This fix guidance is derived from the published rule message, trigger logic, report location, field definition, and official sample data available for this rule.
