SNAP Distributed: Total dollar amount that you swiped on Link cards for day(s) reporting

--
SNAP Redeemed: Total dollar amount of SNAP money that customers used that day. For receipt/chit and loyalty card programs this amount will be the same as SNAP Distributed. For markets using their own currency as SNAP dollars, this could be more or less than SNAP Distributed if the customer didn't spend all of what was swiped on their card

--
Link Match Distributed: The number of Link Match vouchers given to the customer when you process their Link card. (1 voucher = $1 USD)

--
Link Match Redeemed: The number of Link Match vouchers that customers used to buy produce on the day(s) reporting. This number may be more that Link Match Distributed if the customer comes with Link Match vouchers from a previous market. (1 voucher = $1 USD)

SNAP Distributed / SNAP Transactions
SNAP Transaction / Unique SNAP Customers
ERROR: Unique SNAP Customers cannot be higher than SNAP Transactions. SNAP Transactions are the number of times you swiped Link cards and Unique SNAP Customers are the number of SNAP users you served that day.
ERROR: Unique SNAP Customers cannot be 0 if you have run SNAP Transactions. SNAP Transactions are the number of times you swiped Link card and Unique SNAP Customers are the number of SNAP users you served that day.
ERROR: SNAP Transactions and Unique SNAP Customers cannot be greater than 0 if SNAP Transactions are 0, even if vendors redeemed SNAP or Link Match that day. SNAP Transactions and Unique SNAP Customers refer to SNAP benefits you charged that day. SNAP Transactions are how many times you swiped Link cards and Unique SNAP Customers is how many people you ran cards for.
ERROR: SNAP Transactions and Unique SNAP Customers have to be greater than 0 if SNAP Distributed greater than 0. SNAP Transactions and Unique SNAP Customers refer to SNAP benefits you charged (distributed) that day. SNAP Transactions are how many times you swiped Link cards and Unique SNAP Customers is how many people you ran cards for.
POTENTIAL ERROR: The amount of SNAP Distributed per SNAP Transaction is over $100. Please review and make sure your numbers are correct.
POTENTIAL ERROR: The number of Unique SNAP Customers is low compared to the number of SNAP Transactions. Please review before submitting! Unique SNAP Customers are the number of people that you swiped cards for. It should be your total SNAP Transactions minus the number of additional swipes you ran for a person.

Vendors Selling Fruits/Veg (mappable)
Vendors Selling SNAP Eligible (mappable)
Total Vendors (mappable)
ERROR: Vendor totals should be equal to or greater as you move down the table. All produce vendors are SNAP eligible and both are included in the total number of vendors.

Example - if you have 2 produce vendors, 1 meat vendor, 1 cheese vendors, and a pizza vendor you would have 2 Link Match eligible vendors, 4 SNAP eligible vendors, and 5 total vendors.
ERROR: You are reporting that there were no vendors at all to purchase from this week - and were therefore closed. Please correct the number of vendors or select 'Closed' under days you operated.
POTENTIAL ERROR: You are reporting that there were nothing Link Match eligible for sale this week - please update with the number of vendors a customer could spend their vouchers with (fruits, vegetables, mushrooms, plants that produce food).
