# Fieldnote Supply Shop

A six-product shop with linked customers, orders, order lines, captured payments and partial refunds.

All entities and transactions are fictional. Snapshot: 2026-09-08.

## Start with the linked model

1. Open operations.xlsx and review the Summary sheet. Source tables contain stable primary keys and declared references.
2. Change source values in the workbook to explore the calculated totals and editable chart.
3. Compare output values with expected-results.json. The JSON Schema checks types; primary-key uniqueness and joins also require the listed semantic checks.
4. Use invalid-records.json only in a local validation harness. Its three cases exercise duplicate keys, wrong types and an orphan reference.

## Included tables

| Table | Records | Primary key |
| --- | ---: | --- |
| products | 6 | product_id |
| customers | 6 | customer_id |
| orders | 12 | order_id |
| order_lines | 24 | line_id |
| payments | 12 | payment_id |
| variants | 12 | variant_id |
| discounts | 4 | discount_id |
| returns | 4 | return_id |
| merchandising | 6 | placement_id |

## Expected totals

- Gross item sales: 942.00 USD. Sum order_lines.line_total over the included records.
- Refunded amount: 80.00 USD. Sum payments.refunded over the included records.
- Orders: 12.00 records. Count unique order_id values in orders.

## Platform mapping

primary-records.csv is a generic example table. It is not a native platform export. Where this kit includes a named profile, use that profile’s separate CSV and schema and review its compatibility level before uploading.

Shopify and WooCommerce profile files use six simple products in draft status. Square is a mapping example: transfer the data into the current account-specific exported template.

## Scope and assumptions

- Products use USD amounts. Vendor profiles describe tested file specifications, not completed account imports.

What is a .md file?

Markdown (MD) is a lightweight plain-text markup language that uses simple punctuation conventions to denote headings, lists, links, emphasis, and code. It is designed to be readable as-is and to convert cleanly to HTML. It is widely used for documentation, READMEs, and content authoring.

How to use this file

Use an example Markdown file to test parsers and renderers, verify GitHub-Flavored Markdown extensions like tables and fenced code, and exercise HTML-conversion pipelines.

How to use this file for testing

“Fieldnote Supply Shop — Workflow and import guide” is a deterministic Novus Examples fixture for Data import. Realistic faker-generated datasets with documented schemas for testing import and ETL flows.

Documented properties for this file: MD · 1,911 bytes. Compare results against paired or grouped companions on this page when present (clean↔damaged, searchable↔scanned, or format twins) so scores stay reproducible across runs.

Download the file once, keep the path stable in CI or local scripts, and treat the spec table as the contract: dimensions, seeds, field lists, and roles are intentional. Corrupt or invalid samples are labelled as such, expect parsers to fail loudly rather than silently accept them.

Document fixtures list their internal structure (pages, fields, tracked changes, embedded objects) in the spec table. Test extractors, converters, and OCR against that known structure, and compare searchable↔scanned or format-twin companions when present.

Code examples

import markdown  # pip install markdown

html = markdown.markdown(open("guide.md").read())
print(html[:200])
