The UGP record
What a UGP record contains, and why the grade is derived from it and never entered by hand.
4.1 Contents of a record
A UGP record shall contain:
- Identity: class, profile, make, model, model number, storage, colour, region, IMEI or serial number, and the lost/stolen (blacklist) result
identity.blacklist:statusclear,reportedorunchecked, and forclearitsbasis, either a check (measuredorevidenced, with its source and date) or the grader's or seller's declaration that the device is not reported lost or stolen (declared) (§9.3). - The eight axes: cosmetic, functional, battery, locks, operator lock, data, parts and kit.
- Audit fields: UGP version, grader ID, timestamp, method (human, camera, hybrid), verification tier, conformance level, record scope (unit or lot).
4.2 Basis on every value
Each axis value carries a basis (§3).
4.3 Raw observations
Raw observations shall be stored, not only conclusions. That means per-zone defect lists, fault codes, battery readings and part states. A change to a tolerance in a later version can then recompute the grade without re-inspecting the device.
4.4 Derived results
The grade, the status and the core code are derived from the record by a deterministic function. They shall never be entered by hand. Reference behaviour is in Annex E (worked examples). The one exception is the cosmetic value of a supplier-mapped grade, which comes from a published crosswalk (§13.6).
