The bottom line

Roughly 85% of the work in Accept and validate sales orders is information-shaped — already within reach of AI delivery. The question here is not whether it shifts, but which tasks go first and who staffs the residual.

Why: With no child occupations seeded, the evaluation relies on the process name, description, and its lens within 'Develop and manage sales plans.' The core tasks of receiving customer orders, confirming details, and validating them against labor and inventory constraints are pure information-processing activities. Because this work is conducted entirely via digital verification and system coordination (e.g., ERPs/CRMs) rather than the physical handling of goods, it maps to a high digital scalar.
