WHY IT NEEDS A POLICY

Why invoice_from_quote needs a policy

This tool creates a new invoice document derived from an existing quote. Creating an invoice is a Write operation — it generates a new financial record in the ERP system. While it has financial implications (invoices represent billing obligations), it does not directly move money or commit a payment transaction; it merely creates the document.

From the tool's definition "Créer une facture à partir d'un devis" (Create an invoice from a quote)
