Reconcile a weekly commerce review across storefronts and operations
Friday Review Setup repeatedly compared email evidence with Etsy, Faire and Shopify records, exposing stale cancellations, size mismatches and duplicate fulfillment records. The review separates confirmed source state, carried-forward issues and inference; it produces an operator action list without sending messages or changing commerce settings. Email silence is not proof of automation health, and a Shopify fulfillment record is not physical shipping proof.
Workflow steps
- 1
Define the weekly time window and accessible accounts; retain an explicit source-coverage ledger and carry unresolved issues forward without silently renewing their evidence date
Action
- 2
Match platform orders by stable identity and compare cancellation, payment, digital delivery, production, fulfillment and tracking states; avoid counting cross-channel imports as storefront demand
Process
- 3
Operator resolves size/SKU conflicts and duplicate or blank fulfillment records before scheduling production; validate a catalog pilot before extending its changes
Decision
- 4
Inspect execution history and a traceable test outcome for review, marketing, delivery and webhook automations; label absent email alerts as limited evidence
Process
- 5
Reconcile each metric to its period and denominator: separate monthly from lifetime advertising returns, gross from finalized revenue, and narrow keyword changes from broad demand
Action
- 6
Human reviews confirmed findings, carried-forward issues and unknowns, then prioritizes source reconciliation, buyer-impacting conflicts and quantity checks
Decision
- 7
Publish a sanitized weekly evidence packet with next verification steps; keep customer identities and private order links private, with correspondence and mutations separately authorized
