I assume you’re using the EAN data from Pricecharting to automatically link some titles to your library.
I’m asking because i’d like to limit the amount of error reports where i can.
Example:
Game is in core, but missing PCID.
EAN is missing in PriceCharting, and i add the one i got.
Will it automatically (From my point of view) be linked to your database?
Also, what if there is an existing PCID, but it may be linked to the wrong game/edition. will this be automatically (from my point of view) updated if i add the correct EAN to PriceCharting
This may help me avoid reporting errors, and rather update or improve Pricecharting in one go 
No, unfortunately we do not automatically link the PCID if the PCID already exists in CORE.
Newly added barcodes are not linked automatically either.
In most cases, the PriceID already exists in CORE but is not yet linked to the Edition. This is because we use a standard ID for JP, US, and EU games, while special, limited, and other editions often have a different PCID. We are currently working on correcting this.
In short: the way you are currently creating your reports is completely correct. Unfortunately, there is no automated system for handling these errors, so this approach is the best and fastest solution at the moment.

Thanks for a quick and detailed response.
I’ll keep the reports coming when i stumble across anything then.
