Packout checklist

  1. List every shipment touched by the substitution and record which packaging SKU replaced the normal one.
  2. Confirm materials: stretch film, pallet covers, corner boards, pallet labels.
  3. Keep wrap rolls, top sheets, labels, and a load-height reference at the stretch-wrap area.
  4. For warehouse stockout recovery work, treat palletizing and wrap as a controlled operation: define the package spec, stage the right materials, and inspect the first completed orders before volume scales.
  5. Record the approved package size, finished weight, label position, and exception rule.

QA checks

  • Check whether cost or damage changed.
  • Reset reorder points.
  • Add a backup packaging SKU for the next shortage.
