Describe the process, or record yourself doing it once. Okou writes the standard operating procedure — numbered steps, the role that owns each one, the checks that must pass, and the exceptions worth naming.
An SOP is the version of a process that survives the person who invented it. It names the trigger, the steps in order, the role responsible for each, and the check that says a step is genuinely finished.
Most SOPs fail on the same two omissions: no exceptions, so every unusual case becomes a manager's decision, and no verification, so nobody can tell a completed step from a skipped one.
Anything done more than once by more than one person, where a mistake is expensive.
Accounts, devices, and access, in the order that prevents access outliving a start date.
Thresholds, decision tables, and what each exception has to record for review.
Close calendars and report cycles laid out by working day, with the blocking dependencies marked.
What a first responder can decide alone, and the point where it stops being their call.
Onboarding is the clearest case: the procedure is stable, the steps are boring, and every one of them is a place a new starter's first day goes wrong.
Standard operating procedures written from supplied sample process descriptions, each carrying its checks and its exception paths.
Nine numbered steps across three roles, with the scheduled-activation control that makes a slipped start date harmless and three named exceptions.
Approval thresholds by amount plus a decision table that settles the six common cases in advance instead of escalating each one.
A close laid out by working day with the three blocking dependencies marked and the four checks that must pass before the close is called.
An SOP is a workflow nobody automated yet. Connect the tools it names and let Okou run the steps, stopping at the approvals you kept.

Yes. Okou transcribes the narration and pulls stills from the recording, so the procedure follows what you actually did rather than what you remember doing.
Give it the steps and the decision points. Thresholds, owners, and timings are carried through exactly as you state them and are never invented.
That is the point of writing it down. An SOP already names the trigger, the steps, and the approvals, which is most of what a workflow needs.
