The project in view
- Start with
- sample orders and permitted lookup fields.

Workflow mapping for this project

- Create a draft of a customer-safe status explanation, with source references attached.
- Route exposing another customer's order to the nominated reviewer before issuing the final result.
Questions to answer together
- What starts the work, and what marks it complete?
- Who reviews the intermediate result?
- Where does an exception go, and who resolves it?
What to have at the end
A sequence of steps showing inputs, decisions, handoffs and completion.
Record the decision on exposing another customer's order alongside the source material. If it is still unresolved, identify who can answer it and what work depends on the answer.
