Confirmed orders must protect critical commercial fields from unsafe edits, high-discount deals can trigger approvals, and credit-control checks can block confirmation unless approved override exists.
Define explicit and valid status transitions for Sales
Require mandatory fields before high-impact actions
Block unauthorized overrides without approval evidence
Preserve immutable audit history on critical events
Apply idempotency and duplicate protection on write paths
Integrations
