 `ARCO_PROMOTE_CONFIRM` is set exactly. Pair it with `dolibarr-data-snapshot` (prod

-Limitation: a manifest references entities it **creates** (via `@ref`). Referencing
+A manifest value can reference another entity two ways, both resolved against the
-a *pre-existing* prod entity by a sandbox id won't match — resolve those by business
+**target** so the same file is portable sandbox↔prod:
-key (name/code/ref) first. Self-contained change-sets (new thirdparty + its invoice
+
-+ payment) replay cleanly today.
+- **`@ref`** — an entity **created earlier in this manifest** (resolves to the id
+  just created on the target). For new records.
+- **`#entity:field=value`** — a **pre-existing** entity, looked up on the target by
+  business key, e.g. `#thirdparty:name=KissMetrics` or `#thirdparty:code=CL0007`.
+  Supports `thirdparty` (name/code/supplier_code) and `invoice`/`supplierinvoice`
+  (ref/ref_supplier). A lookup matching **nothing or more than one** record **aborts
+  the run** — it never guesses, so it can't write to the wrong entity.
+
+So a real change like "invoice the existing client KissMetrics and record its
+payment" is `{"socid":"#thirdparty:name=KissMetrics", ...}` — it resolves to the
+sandbox KissMetrics on `--target sandbox` and the prod one on `--target prod`.
