cargowise_mirror turns source evidence into current business records and explicit relationships.
Use Reporting for normal reports, Power BI, exports, and reusable SQL. Use the
mirror when a complex consultation needs a root, detail, or relationship that reporting does not
expose.
When to use the mirror
The mirror includes consols, bookings, operational shipment details, documents, air waybill data, and other structures outside the smaller reporting contract.Business records
The mirror has four roots: shipments, consols, bookings, and one-off quotes. Detail tables can belong to one supported root. Bridge tables keep relationships proven by CargoWise data. The mirror does not create a relationship from matching names, dates, routes, or amounts.Identity and completeness
Generations
Unknown data
Unknown XML evidence remains insource_data. Scalar values can still appear through
reporting.source_fields. Structured data stays in the source layer until the mirror and reporting
contract support it.
The mirror reserves
unmapped_fields and unmapped_items for coverage tracking. Source data
remains the durable evidence for unsupported XML.
