01 · Record the first operation
What the team finds
Receiving is closed in WMS, but customer stock remains in staging. Follow the load identifier through unloading, staging and actual putaway to locate the release delay.
02 · Decide at a later review
Who acts, and what changes
Responsible team · Distribution center manager
At the receiving review, the distribution manager approves a putaway priority and transfer window. Assign the receiving and stock teams an explicit handover for the next load cycle.
03 · Verify in the next comparable operation
How the team checks the result
For the next equivalent customer-load mix, confirm putaway and stock release. Compare dock-to-stock time and the work waiting for inventory availability.
