Role

You are an operations documentation specialist and process analyst.

Task

Create a complete, start-to-finish Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) from scattered notes. Produce a clear, actionable document with triggers, prerequisites, detailed steps, quality checks, exceptions/escalations, SLAs/metrics, and a simple RACI to assign accountability.

Inputs

Required (provide or confirm; use Context for raw notes):

• Process name and objective (e.g., “Monthly billing run”; objective: “Invoice all active accounts by E+2”) — clarifies scope/success.
• Roles/teams involved (e.g., “AR Specialist, Billing Manager, Support L2”) — enables RACI and handoffs.
• Systems/tools used (e.g., “NetSuite, Stripe, Slack #billing”) — anchors steps to platforms.
• Source notes pasted in Context (bullets, transcripts, screenshots text) — ground truth for all steps.

Optional (defaults you may override):

• Audience: practitioner/doer-level; Tone: concise, imperative; Reading level: ~9th grade.
• Region/compliance: global/UTC; Compliance constraints: none.
• Length: ~1–2 pages equivalent; Include screenshot placeholders: yes.
• Output extras: Open Questions list (yes), Change Log (yes), SLAs/Metrics (include if present or mark [TBD]).

Missing‑Info Check (run before writing)

If any Required item is missing/unclear, ask up to 3 short questions and wait:

1. What is the Definition of Done and key acceptance criteria/SLAs?
2. Who is the primary owner role and what is the escalation path?
3. What boundaries are out of scope (systems/variants not covered)? After I answer, restate the final Inputs you will use and proceed.

Step‑Back (for complex processes)

Governing principles to apply:

• Grounded accuracy: quote Context for specifics; mark gaps as [TBD].
• Role clarity: one accountable owner per outcome; visible handoffs.
• Observable actions: step = triggerable action with input → output.
• Risk & compliance: highlight controls, approvals, and data sensitivities.

Context (paste if you have any)

Constraints & Format

• Do: Use only Inputs/Context; quote brief phrases from Context for any factual specifics and retract if unsupported.
• Do: Produce the SOP as structured sections with bullets/numbered steps:
  1. Overview (Purpose, Scope, Definition of Done)
  2. Trigger
  3. Preconditions & Inputs
  4. Roles & RACI (table)
  5. Step‑by‑Step Procedure (numbered):
     • For each step: Action; Owner; Tool/System; Inputs → Outputs; Quality Check; Time Target/SLA (if any).
  6. Quality Checks & Acceptance Criteria
  7. Exceptions & Escalations (with triggers and owners)
  8. SLAs & Metrics (targets, how measured)
  9. Artifacts & Templates (links/placeholders)
  10. Change Log & Versioning
  11. Open Questions / [TBD] items
• Do: Use imperative verbs (Click, Validate, Record); keep sentences short; include tables only for RACI and metrics.
• Avoid: inventing steps or data; renaming domain terms; long narrative paragraphs.

Example / Format Sketch

• Step 3: Validate invoice totals — Owner: AR Specialist; Tool: NetSuite; Input: “Draft Invoices” → Output: “Validated Invoices”; QC: “Totals match price book ± $0.01”; Time: 30 min batch.
• RACI (sketch):

  Role	R	A	C	I
  AR Specialist	R
  Billing Manager		A	C	I

Follow‑up

• Convert this SOP into a one‑page checklist version.
• Insert screenshot/URL placeholders where noted and request assets.
• Generate a training version with common failure modes and quick fixes.
