Find Bar Code.
Will that fix the covering service cross problem too?

That will never happen! They put the misloads in your car on purpose! Do you really think you can go to work and have an easy and stress free day?the wave of the future should be getting the right box on the right truck, and then let me do my job
I just wish they would stop putting the damn PAL labels on top of the barcode and/or my service cross from the day before.

Truthfully, if I was UPS, the wave of the future would be to embed short-range RFID chips into the boxes, and then put receivers in the trucks; then, use the dispatch plan to synchronize a specific box to a specific trucks signature - applied en masse, the moment you walked in a truck with the wrong box it would sound an alarm. No scanning required.
From there, you could do your job.
It's fun to dream.
That wouldnt stop a few of our guys from going in the wrong truck! A few may enjoy it.sounds great, but let's kick it up a notch * instead of an alarm (which can be ignored), i'm thinking about a knee buckling buzz from a shock collar
BB, there was talk of imbedding RFID chips in the shipping label, which would allow real-time tracking of packages.
I miss the good old days! Packages on the dash...bulkhead door wide open!!There's a lot of advantages to it; as always, there's a lot of disadvantages too ... maybe your not sheeting packages while moving, but now you can't set them up on the dash, either.

Sounds crazy, but the reason why you can't alias outside a specific zip code anymore is because IE got wind that every PDS and his mom was using AMS to "quick fix" problems instead of going back and editing a hundred dispatch plans - which is pretty time consuming. So, the feature was removed and now you get more NIS's and blanks than ever before.
Soin other words, rather than sanction and stop the bad behavior, I.E. took "the quick fix" and messed up what could have been useful and made it far worse?
BB is right. It's a PITA to fix that and the managers of the sups don't give them the time required to do the job correctly. I mean, think about it. Do they give anybody the time needed to do the job correctly????Soin other words, rather than sanction and stop the bad behavior, I.E. took "the quick fix" and messed up what could have been useful and made it far worse?
Rather than allow the system to guess, I would rather see the system send questionable packages to the clerk. A bad PAL guess cost me a late NDA this morning.
If it didn't guess the preload would never get down on time. I think it guesses correctly on most, but it's hard to tell since the good ones don't get called in to the center.
