What are non-confirmaties? Do you mean eg irregularities? Without any more context, Simple Past seems fine to me.

Anonymous have been yesterday or had been yesterday
"have been ... yesterday" is impossible. You can't have the present perfect in the same sentence with a definite time reference.

If you have to choose between "have been" and "had been", you have to choose "had been".

For your sentence I might write: All nonconformities had been rectifie
