## TL;DR
Fix this in the enrichment overwrite rule by acting on the exact message first: set the phone field update rule to fill only when empty, or to replace only when the new value is non empty and verified, then restore the verified number from the field history for the affected leads. Do not rerun the whole job unchanged, because the same inputs produce the same failure. Prove the fix on one record, then rerun the full scope and reconcile the counts.

## Use this when
- The operation in the enrichment overwrite rule fails with this exact message: how to fix enrichment overwrite error verified phone replaced with empty fails.
- The same failure repeats on retry with unchanged inputs.
- A run, import, export or alert is blocked until this item completes.

## Not for this skill when
- The message is a permission or platform outage notice. Resolve that first, then return here if this error remains.
- The operation completes and you only disagree with its output. That is a quality review, not this failure.

## Steps
1. Reproduce the failure with the smallest scope that still shows it in the enrichment overwrite rule, and copy the full message plus the record, account or list involved into the run notes. Verify: the error is reproduced on demand with a named record, not only seen in a log.
2. Apply the specific fix for this error: set the phone field update rule to fill only when empty, or to replace only when the new value is non empty and verified, then restore the verified number from the field history for the affected leads. Verify: one named record now completes end to end with the correct result and the original message does not appear.
3. Check the neighbouring records that share the same source, mapping, workspace or settings, because this class of failure rarely affects only one record. Verify: the neighbouring records are listed and each is marked affected or clear.
4. Compare the result counts, fields or alerts against the source in the enrichment overwrite rule so a silent partial success is caught before sign off. Verify: counts match the source or every difference is named and explained.
5. Rerun the original operation in the enrichment overwrite rule on the previously failing scope, watching for the same message rather than assuming success from a quiet log. Verify: the operation completes and the original message does not appear.
6. Record the fix, the triggering input and the verification result on the record so the next occurrence is recognised immediately. Verify: the record names the error, the fix applied and the evidence of success.

## Why it happens
The sync wrote the full provider record including empty fields, clearing good verified values with blanks.

## Variant phrasings

### how to fix enrichment overwrite error verified phone replaced with empty fails
The verbatim form searchers paste from the terminal or console. Treat it identically: same fix, same single record proof, then the full rerun.

### How to fix this failure in the enrichment overwrite rule
The how-to phrasing for the same failure. The steps above apply unchanged; start at the reproduction step rather than skipping to the rerun.

### Troubleshooting this failure in the enrichment overwrite rule
The symptom-first phrasing used when the console hides the full message. Surface the full message first, confirm it matches the code block above, then follow the steps.

Compatibility: the enrichment overwrite rule at current versions, plus the platform API or console the query names; no extra tooling beyond the source system access needed to verify counts.
