Evidence Templates are reusable blueprints for a specific type of evidence (e.g. Organic Certification Template). Templates define the expected fields, metadata, and format to ensure standardisation.
Evidence Records are the actual instances of applied evidence linked to a product, template, location, order, or organisation. These are generated using the template structure and include specific data, attachments, and validity periods.
Templates are created once and then reused to create multiple evidence records.
Templates are stored centrally under Evidence Tracking > Evidence Templates.
Records are managed in the Evidence module and represent real-world documentation.
