Tour code interpretation

The purpose of this SOP is to standardize the reading and interpretation of the Official Tour Code used for deal renaming in the final stages of the Sales KANBAN pipeline.
This new, simplified code format ensures accurate and concise classification and integration with external systems like Ezus.

This SOP applies to all staff who are required to interpret or input the standardized Tour Code.
