I got a status file but no detailed feedback file
Check the full response package, re-extract it, and open the latest download. If the detailed feedback file is still missing, the issue is with the output files received.
What this usually means
You have a status file, but you cannot find a detailed feedback file in the files you downloaded or extracted.
Start by checking the files you have before you change the register. Confirm that you opened the full package, extracted it properly, and are looking at the latest version you received.
Why this happens
-
You opened the status file directly and did not review the full downloaded package.
-
You are looking at an older download instead of the latest package.
-
The package did not extract fully, so not all files are visible.
-
The files currently available to you do not include a detailed feedback file.
What to check and how to fix it
Check the full downloaded package, not just the status file.
If you opened the status file directly from your downloads or extraction folder, you may not have checked the rest of the files. Go back to the downloaded package and review all included files first.
Check whether the package was fully extracted.
If the extraction was incomplete, some files may be missing from the folder you opened. Extract the package again into a new empty folder and then review the full file list.
Check the file dates and names for duplicate downloads.
If you have more than one package for the same submission, you may be looking at an older response. Open the most recent package and use that as the basis for troubleshooting.
Check whether the detailed feedback file is missing from the package itself or only from the folder you first opened.
If it is missing from the package, the issue is with the files available to you now, not with the register content. Keep the current package and avoid editing the register until you have confirmed you are using the correct file set.
What happens next
Once you confirm the correct package and its full contents, the next step is clearer. If the detailed feedback file is present, use that file for the next round of fixes. If it is not present in the correct package, the issue remains with the output files you received, not with a register change you should make now.
