Valid order: Webhook receives POST → Validate fields → Verify payment → Check stock → Reserve inventory → Create order → Generate shipping label → Send confirmation email → Notify Slack → Log audit → Return 201 with tracking number and estimated delivery
Invalid order: Missing required fields → Return 400 with specific validation errors
Payment failed: Payment status is not "paid" → Return 402 with payment status details
Out of stock: Insufficient stock for one or more items → Return 409 with unavailable items list
Workflow error: Any node fails → Error trigger → Slack alert to #errors channel
