The requirement would fail on checks for ambiguity and clarity. It is specific about calculating the volume of orders received per salesman on Fridays, but it is unclear why this is important and what purpose it serves. Additionally, the exception of the end of year reports being run may lead to confusion and is not explained further. The requirement is relevant and is not a solution to a problem.
