Left tableTable supplies ticket records
Join conditionDecision matches related primary key values
Right tableTable supplies customer and technician names
Matched resultResult keeps rows with all required matches
Verify Key inspectionConnect key inspection with its topic-specific inspection, expected outcome, and protected database boundary.
