Oh, boy. You really know how to complicate things, don’t you?

What used to be a straightforward method of noting where an item could be used has been replaced with a multi-step process that involves a chart, comparing it to the unit being worked on, then looking in up to four different places, if not more, to find a match because you don’t have a complete list anywhere. The keys to deciphering this are scattered hither and yon.

No one is going to know how to do this. If we get it wrong, are there going to be legal ramifications?

I’ve told you that database connections via VPN WILL. NOT. WORK. over a VSAT link.

Yet you keep on bleating about that shit.

I’m going to gaslight you from now on. There’s nothing more that I can do.

We will have to wait for a fixed line to be installed, with the VSAT link as a backup, and I don’t know when that will happen.

An account lockout happens when you type in your password incorrectly for three consecutive turns.

No ifs, buts, maybes… the computer does not lie.

I’m the guy that engineered the whole data flow you’re talking about, but sure, go ask the guy that has no idea about it. It’s not my time you’re wasting, but I definitely wasted my time explaining it to you that the problem is not the data flow.
