sales.orders.create

// WHEN AI AGENTS USE THIS TOOL

AI agents use sales.orders.create to create or modify resources in Exact Online. Write operations carry medium risk because an autonomous agent could trigger bulk unintended modifications. Rate limits prevent a single agent session from making hundreds of changes in rapid succession. Argument validation ensures the agent passes expected values.

// WHY ENFORCE A POLICY ON SALES.ORDERS.CREATE

Without a policy, an AI agent could call sales.orders.create repeatedly, creating or modifying resources faster than any human could review. Intercept's rate limiting ensures write operations happen at a controlled pace, and argument validation catches malformed or unexpected inputs before they reach Exact Online.

// RECOMMENDED POLICY

Write tools can modify data. A rate limit prevents runaway bulk operations from AI agents.
