A WORKFLOW TO EXAMINE

A Saint John repair business performs work for an asset user while another organization is responsible for payment. Approval limits differ between them. Trace the work request, commercial authorization and invoice recipient so a service contact cannot unknowingly authorize charges for a separate payer.

Illustrative scenario, not a claim about a local client or the community’s dominant industries. Use it when the same problem appears in your business.

Make the requirements reviewable

Bring an ordinary transaction and an exception from your current process. Replace the sample assumptions with your own quantities, approvals and business rules. These records give the process owner and implementation team something concrete to evaluate.

Connect the exercise to your regional review

For the wider regional review, bring these decisions into discovery: customer document choices; multi-location ownership; existing records. The New Brunswick guide explains what evidence to collect. Keep these questions separate from any assumption about a city-specific software requirement.
