[QUOTE="Catatonic, post: 937012, member: 7966"] The average package is scanned 13 times once it reaches the first UPS facility. All these scans are feed into one of the worlds largest databases where UPS systems crosscheck 1Zs, double check actual weight, check dimensional weight, against the actual weight, check actual delivery location against the PLD submitted by the customer, check the Origin Scan location to ensure the customer has the correct origin registered for their shipping system ... I am just getting started. Suffice it to say, UPS uses the PLD (Package Level Detail) from the customers and compares that to the scans that occur to ensure UPS gets all funds related to the actual transportation of that package. The scans by the driver goes into Delivery Information systems and only a small portion of that is injected into the OPLD systems used for Billing purposes. I know that drivers think they are doing the right thing but all those scans of Daily Pickups, UPS Stores, etc serve no purpose other than to waste time. The UPS Store scans all drop-offs and that information is injected into UPS systems so that the store gets credit for that drop-off as well as other uses. I would be interested if any driver, in the last 5 years, has been talked to about missing a pickup scan other than Drop Boxes Shipping Documents (ASD, GSD, 2SD, 3SD and Waybills) Walk ups [/QUOTE]
