How would you handle a carton with an unreadable identity label?

Instruction: Explain what evidence you would seek and how you would preserve traceability while the identity is unresolved.

Context:

You find a carton in receiving with an unreadable barcode and a partly torn printed label. Its shape and color resemble two different SKUs delivered today. A readable delivery reference remains, but the SKU and lot cannot be established from the carton. Site rules permit replacement labels only from verified product and lot records, with the relabeling action recorded by an authorized person.
