**1. Purpose**

1. Automates detection of order discrepancies (missing, wrong, or damaged items) in catering wholesale transactions.

2. Automates alerting staff, suppliers, or customers about identified discrepancies in real time.

3. Automates creation of resolution tickets in selected support or ticketing systems to ensure traceability and workflow management.

4. Automates cross-platform updates for status tracking, resolution notifications, and escalations if required.

5. Automates compiling incident data for process improvement, supplier compliance tracking, and audit purposes.

**2. Trigger Conditions**

1. Order received with missing, substituted, or damaged SKUs as per logistics integration.

2. Order scanned at warehouse does not match expected quantity or item list from ERP or POS.

3. Customer or delivery team marks delivered order as incomplete or incorrect via app or portal.
