[QUOTE="'Lord Brown's bidding', post: 1257192, member: 32753"] The EOD allows every package to receive a pickup scan, so of course if one was available you'd only need to scan it. However, if one of your pickups is not printing the EOD we are supposed to ask for it, not shrug our shoulders are and say whatever. And in those cases where the EOD is not generated we are suppose to scan the packages in. The origin scan does not replace the pickup scan. (Like all things reasonableness needs to be shown; I have a pickup that neglects to print out their EOD from time to time while shipping out 300 pieces. It wouldn't be prudent to take all of the time needed to scan each package.) Relying on the origin scan is passing the buck to the next person down the line. We aren't supposed to do that with poorly packaged pieces ("[I]QC can fix it up"[/I]), hazmats that aren't in like new condition; pre loaders aren't suppose to load beat up packages. The same is true for drivers accepting packages without generating a pickup scan. It is a disservice to the customer, and where the EOD is generated, very few pieces are shipped out, or we are talking individual ARS pieces there is no reason those pieces don't receive pickup scans. I wonder if you have ever cost someone their refund because you relied on the hub to give an origin scan to a package that was lost in the hub before it got one... [/QUOTE]
