PPWR validation warning: Pkg material category

This appears when the submitted value is outside the allowed set carried by the versioned rule.

What the check requires

The declared material should map to Clearlane's working categories: plastic, paper, glass, metal, wood, composite or other. This is a normalised data check; the official report distinguishes categories such as ferrous metal and aluminium.

A warning — it does not block deterministic validation, but it remains recorded for review.

Why this is reported

This appears when the submitted value is outside the allowed set carried by the versioned rule. The deterministic PPWR validator reports it as rule ppwr.pkg.material-category. The requirement and citation come from versioned profile 1.0.3; Clearlane does not replace them with an AI-generated verdict.

How it gets fixed

Check the source system and replace the value with an allowed value identified by the rule; do not map it by guesswork. Run validation again. Clearlane never fills a compliance value by guessing.
