[QUOTE="UPS Lifer, post: 730174, member: 9789"] Unit allowances are determined by types of buidings - number of businesses vs residential - speed limits in the unit - average walk distance. All the things above have a TMU - time measurement unit associated with it. It may take an average of 20 seconds longer to get a signature so the DIAD adds the number of signatures to the total day. To my knowledge it is not added by unit. The overall allowance for the unit "figures in" the average number of DR vs Signature plus some of the things stated above and then adds the TMU. You have no control over how long it takes to get a signature but you do have control over how long it takes to DR. So less signatures should mean you are more consistent in your delivery routine. This would be an advantage to you and the center. Bottom line - if the center says a unit allowance dropped because they have approved more DR for that unit then if you get the same amount of signatures you will be overallowed or more over allowed for that unit than prior to the unit allowance change. You should be able to do the unit faster causing you to work less time and increase SPORH. Even with more signatures the added TMU will probably not make up the difference because the allowance for the unit is based on averages. The only way to change the DIAD is for someone to go in and change the amount of signature stops. I don't know if someone can still go into PTE and do that been gone to long. Someone else would have to answer that. If it can be changed then you have time card manipulation and a very serious problem. [/QUOTE]
