Packout checklist

  1. List every shipment touched by the substitution and record which packaging SKU replaced the normal one.
  2. Confirm materials: carton sealing tape, paper tape, tape dispensers, strapping.
  3. Keep dispensers adjusted, replace dull blades, and post a photo showing the accepted H-seal pattern.
  4. For warehouse stockout recovery work, treat tape and sealing 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.
