System Response

The system sets the check result and creates a task based on the

substance level to <LS>Not Registered</>. In the standard system, this
check criterion is for information purposes only and no task is created.

Check the registration decision and correct, if necessary.
If you are sure that you will not register the substance, check
that the use and exposure composition is maintained correctly.
Note: If relevant uses are maintained in the use and exposure
composition and you decide not to register the substance, you can no
longer sell products that require these uses within the REACH area.
