What is the first status listed for downstream tasks in the sequence?

• A. Ready for Fulfillment
• B. Prepare for Shipment
• C. Shipment
• D. Receive

Answer: (A)

In this sequence, downstream tasks begin when work is allowed to move from preparation into actual execution. Ready for Fulfillment signals that all prerequisites have been met and the system can start the fulfillment work—dispatching technicians, allocating resources, and completing the service. It’s the point at which the workflow hands off to the steps that actually fulfill the order, so it’s listed first in the downstream task sequence. The other statuses describe logistics or intake steps (receiving, preparing for shipment, shipping) that occur before the work can be fulfilled, so they come earlier in the broader process but not as the starting point for downstream execution.
