BQ27742-G1: GPC result and golden image

Part Number: BQ27742-G1
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: BQ27426

Hi-

I am characterizing Foxnovo 3400mAh for golden image. I just got a GPC report as shown below, how can I interpret the result? For example, what are chem ID and generic ID? Is 3608 the one we should use? Why it says " devices like bq274xx " but we are using 27742?

Based on the result, what is next step to do?

thanks!

Michael
