Repair the Make mapping when it is the confirmed problem. Righthand can get the missing quantity meaning from the supplier.

This article is from Righthand. It uses primary product documentation checked on October 13, 2026. The examples are illustrative, not performance tests.

## The buyer's task

A buyer's scenario transfers a quantity between apps. The receiving report has no unit for the number.

## The documented Make path

The Make documentation gives information about scenario modules for triggers and actions. The configured scenario and its owner determine the procedure. [Official documentation](https://help.make.com/types-of-modules).

Correct the source mapping. Do a test of its unit field. A human or assistant can get the supplier’s missing unit definition before the transfer.

## The Righthand path

A Righthand is an assistant with its own contact details, connected accounts, and recurring responsibilities. You can give instructions by email, text, phone, or Slack. [Righthand introduction](https://docs.righthand.ai/introduction).

> Read the supplied quantity and supplier description.
>
> Get the supplier's unit definition.
>
> Send the complete quantity basis to the buyer.
>
> Send the owner the result in this conversation.
>
> Get approval before you change a price or accepted commitment.

The assistant reads the supplied information and carries out the permitted task. It sends a new question when the reply makes an owner decision necessary.

With **Ask**, an outward instruction must identify the recipient and action. Connection tool permissions are another required control. [Communications Policy](https://docs.righthand.ai/security/external-communications).

For direct account reads or writes, the actual connection operation and access are necessary. Supplying information in a message is a different procedure from direct account access. [Connections](https://docs.righthand.ai/guides/adding-your-first-connection).

## An illustrative result

> The supplier's number means cases of twenty. The receiving report treated it as individual items.

The buyer corrects the mapping before giving acceptance of another report.

## Compare the work that remains

Examine the work in Righthand [Activity](https://docs.righthand.ai/guides/working-with-your-righthand). Examine the applicable records in Make independently. This article contains no executed comparison results.

## Costs and existing work

Read current plans before purchase. [Righthand pricing](https://www.righthand.ai/pricing) supplies its plan information. Make account terms determine access and usage for that product.

Compare total required accounts, setup, observed usage, and corrections. Do not equate unlike usage units or treat a subscription price as cost per completed task.
