# What a Retail Store or Ecommerce Seller Should Pay Attention to With AI.

Check your chosen AI tool before using it for office work. Start with inquiry fields, public facts, source files, and message approval.

## The five things for retail stores and ecommerce sellers

### Can AI submit a request without callback details?

Example: A request includes a name but lacks the details needed for review. Check for item details, fulfillment preference, and callback information. Test whether your form rejects incomplete requests. For ChatGPT, check [supported website workflows](https://help.openai.com/en/articles/20001280-using-cloud-browser-in-chatgpt) before testing it.

**Do this:** Require item details, pickup or shipping preference, and callback information.

[See visible request fields](/check#forms)

### What does AI repeat about our office?

ChatGPT can be mistaken. [See OpenAI's accuracy limits](https://help.openai.com/en/articles/8313428-does-chatgpt-tell-the-truth). Compare answers about hours, services, and request steps with your current website.

**Do this:** Check your published facts against the current office instructions.

[Check the public office facts](/check)

[See visible business facts](/check#agent_facts)

### Who keeps the files behind each draft?

Keep source files and dated corrections together. Keep a current copy that your business controls. Limit access to the files needed for this job. Test those limits in the tool's settings.

This is a manual check; the scanner cannot see private files.

**Do this:** Keep the files for this job together. Supply your current order. Supply your fulfillment log. Supply your reply template.

[Read the files this office job uses](/for/retail-and-ecommerce#1-draft-an-order-reply-from-the-current-order)

### Who approves a message before it goes out?

Require a staff member's approval before sending each message. A different recipient or changed file needs another review. Keep action permissions separate from drafting.

This is a manual check; the scanner does not score approvals.

**Do this:** Name the approver and show the final text before sending.

### What should the office write down first?

Write the instructions for order replies before starting the job. Mark missing rules for staff review instead of asking AI to guess.

**Do this:** Name who maintains these files. Supply your current order. Supply your fulfillment log. Supply your reply template.
