Identify sales exceptions
Sales Exception Handling focuses on unpaid invoices, cancellations, failed emails, stock promises, and exception ownership. In AWRA, sales control depends on keeping customer, quote, invoice, payment, stock, attachment, and report context connected.
The practical goal is revenue confidence. Teams should know who the customer is, what was promised, what was approved, what was invoiced, what was paid, and what remains at risk.
In practice, a supervisor sees a failed invoice email, confirms the customer contact, checks stock promise risk, and assigns collections follow-up.

Sales model
- Sales records should preserve customer identity, promise, approval, and collection context.
- Attachments and status changes should support the transaction instead of living outside it.
- Credit and payment controls protect revenue quality as much as sales speed.
- Managers need exception patterns, not only individual transaction totals.
