When compiling the final report, the laboratory must format its test method entries based on the exact nature of the ZDHC validation:
- Standard Method: List the code as-is with full reference to its official designation (e.g., ISO, EPA).
- In-House Method: Reference the explicit internal standard operating procedure (SOP) along with its active version tracking number.
- Adapted Standard Method: The laboratory must reference the original baseline standard, but explicitly include the qualification text: "applied with reference to [Standard]" or "modified according to [Standard Code], adapted for [Matrix Type]."
