How does one say: adding a record previously omitted

English Language & Usage Asked by T.Fung on May 13, 2021

Let’s say, in accounting, a previous spreadsheet that I passed onto my client had a missing record, but in the newest version, I have now included this missing record. How do I phrase this succinctly, perhaps even with one word?

"A revision to the previous version" would suggest a false record was made rather than the omission of a record.

Thank you in advance.

I might say that I have rectified an omission.

As an example from the Cambridge dictionary, we have

We have rectified this common omission.

"rectify" often goes with "omission".

A very succint way to notify an error, in particular when there are several of them, is to write down an errata section (singular: erratum) or an ADDENDA (singular: addendum) at the end or at the beginning of the document.

ERRATA (from preceding edition)

XXX p. yyy is now WWW
UUU p. VVV is now PPP
