4. Manufacturing & Production Controls

• Space Segregation: Consecration rituals for [SP] items must take place in an isolated spiritual workspace.
• Equipment Protocol: Laser printers and 3D printers must be thoroughly cleaned of residue before switching between product lines.
• Material Integrity: Skin-safe, FDA-approved ingredients must be used for all soaps and oils.
• Testing: All hand-poured candles must pass standard burn testing before inventory release.

5. Multi-Channel Sales & Labeling Compliance 

To comply with Nevada Revised Statutes (NRS) Chapter 598 (Deceptive Trade Practices), product listings must clearly communicate intent.

Physical Retail Store Operations

• Shelving: [SP] and [NS] items must reside on clearly designated, separate shelves or display cases.
• Signage: Displays for spiritual items must feature a visible sign reading: "Spiritual items are sold as curios only."
• Point of Sale: Receipts must dynamically print the corresponding [SP] or [NS] prefix next to the item name.

Online E-Commerce Operations

• Product Pages: Every digital listing must prominently display its classification code ([SP] or [NS]) in the title or first line of description.
• Spiritual Disclaimers: All online [SP] items must include the mandatory footer text: "Results are not guaranteed. Sold for entertainment and spiritual curio purposes only."
• Metadata Tagging: Items must be tagged correctly in the backend inventory system to prevent cross-categorization in search filters.

6. Personalization & Custom Order Workflow

1. Intake Form: Customers ordering custom laser-printed, 3D-printed, or handmade goods must check a box selecting either "Spiritual/Ritual Use" or "Decorative/Fashion Use."
2. Order Routing: Orders marked for spiritual use are automatically assigned the [SP] prefix and routed to the consecrated studio workspace.
3. Final Quality Log: The crafting artisan must sign off on the batch log, verifying that the physical item matches the customer's selected intent category before packaging.
