Much of the analysis suggested, like checking B-factors of neighboring atoms, coordination geometry and atom-atom distances, are implemented here:

Is that the right way round? Atomic no K 19,  Na 11

Call something K when it should be NA - B factor will shoot to reduce the atom contribution.
Call something Na when it should be K - B factor will become very small..

As you say - check which fits best with the surrounding atoms..

    Hello, K will always have a higher B-factor for a given piece of
    density due to it having a larger atomic number. Is the K B-factor
    much higher than those of neighbouring atoms and, if not, it's
    probably the best interpretation? Cheers, Jon.C.

        Dear Community,
                                Can you tell me. if we fit some metal
        in X-ray structure and its geometry and other properties are
        satisfied but showing some higher B-factor. does it validate
        to put that metal-ligand.ligand. At one site 2 metals such as
        K and NA fit, but K shows a higher B-factor, but other
        parameters such as geometry and other fit better for K instead
        of NA. So, out of the two ligands at the same site which one
        would be more favorable to be fit.
