[QUOTE="UpstateNYUPSer(Ret), post: 502735, member: 12570"] There have been other threads on this subject and others have mentioned that their loaders are instructed to write the sequence number on the pkg. To me, that is a waste of time which could be better spent comparing the PAL to the address label. As a driver, I would never look at the number that the loader wrote on the pkg. I look for the PAL, compare it to the label, and deliver it. Writing the sequence number of the pkg is simply taking the number off of the PAL--so, what if the PAL is different from the address label? Does writing the sequence number on the pkg suddenly make it the right PAL for that pkg? We had a "out of sync" day on Tuesday in which a number of pkgs had the wrong PAL affixed to it. I had 2 pkgs which both had WalMart PAL labels but one was going to our industrial park and the other to a town 45 minutes away. I simply sent an ODS and set up a drop point so that they could P/U the pkgs and shuttle or deliver them. [/QUOTE]
