About this exercise
For each of the three deals, count the days from signing to cancellation and say whether the commission is reversed under the policy. Write exactly 3 numbered lines like "1. Deal A - 71 days - Reversed - $4,200" (amount shown only if reversed; otherwise write Not reversed). Then a final line exactly: "Confirm with Finance before telling the rep." Day 90 counts as within the window. Plain text.
Common mistakes when you ask AI for this
- Using the old window. The AI reverses Deal B under 180 days. Try: Add: "Use the 2026 90-day window."
- Excluding day 90. The AI says Deal C is not reversed. Try: Add: "Day 90 counts as within the window."
- Missing the Finance line. The AI ends with advice to the rep. Try: Add: "Final line exactly: Confirm with Finance before telling the rep."
- Wrong format. The AI writes a table and explanation. Try: Add: "3 numbered lines then the final line, plain text."
What a strong prompt includes
- Shows the line format
- Sets the day 90 rule
