OPERATIONS REVIEW · Workflow idea

Explain a possible delivery delay without sending a stale or inaccurate update.

For work involving verified order status, delivery estimates, delay duration, and proposed customer notices, check the facts and permissions before taking the next step. Prepare a delay summary and customer message draft from verified order and delivery records. Delivery estimates can change, and notices expose customer order details. Verify order identity, carrier status, and date calculations, limit message details, respect contact preferences, and require an owner to approve the exact customer update.
