Verifying a Distribution List
Introduction
Overview
Distribution lists define which beneficiaries will receive entitlements during a distribution cycle. Distribution lists must be verified every cycle before they become active. The same user cannot create and verify the same distribution list.
Who is responsible for verifying a distribution list?
Programme is normally responsible for verifying a distribution list. Check with your Country Office to confirm who in Programme is responsible in your country.
Why is verifying a distribution list important?
It is important to verify a distribution list to ensure it is correct before it is used in a distribution cycle. Interventions will not be successful if the distribution list is incorrect.
What do I need to do before verifying a distribution list?
Ensure the following processes have been completed:
- A distribution list must have been created in SCOPE by another user before you can verify it.
- For conditional interventions, conditionality data for all beneficiaries must have been uploaded to SCOPE.
