    Archived End of an era!

    After 4 years my last day will be March 10th. Target was my first job, I started my freshman year of college as a seasonal team member. I've worked in every workcenter minus guest service, cart attendant, food ave, and softlines. A year in, I interviewed for the TL bench and waited for half a...

    Archived Backroom workload and hours

    With the new push to shift hours from logistics to salesfloor/instocks my Backroom schedules have been cut pretty drastically. So I had a few questions for the other backroom/logistics leaders out there. -How many hours do you schedule Backroom per truck day? (Assume it's 1 truck, 6am unload)...

    Archived ETL Bench out of state transfer

    One of my Sr.TL's is on the ETL bench (signed off on and passed interviews in our district) but she is considering moving to a different state. She saw an ETL opening in the town she is moving to and was curious if she can move directly in to the position if the store approves? My ETL-HR is out...

    Archived WARNING- tomorrow autofills

    communication was sent out at the dtl level that the Autofill system is being adjusted tonight. Official word is to expect Autofills 15hrs+ larger then usual, it is required to pull-push-backstock everything that triggers. Anything not pulled will roll into the next batch, it is projected to...

    Archived Break policy

    I had a fellow TL approach me today asking how to address a situation in which their TM is taking additional "smoking" breaks on days the TL isn't working. They take these breaks on top of their 15's and lunch. I've never had a similar situation in my own work center so I wasn't able to offer...

    Archived Decode books

    What does your store do with decode books? I've had a massive amount build up over the last 6 weeks in my electronics lock up. I've gone the standard route of pulling a set amount during 12 steps and having my team flex them out, but it's barely made a dent lol. Any suggestions?

    Archived Missed scan return

    A TL from another store informed me today they missed their scan return for last week. Does anyone know what the exact implications are or if there is anything that can be done?

    Archived Evening autofills

    Has anyone attempted having their Autofills drop in the evening? We're a 4am process and I was curious if changing the Autofills to drop at 6pm would have a negative impact on metrics?

    Archived Discontinued gift cards

    does anyone know what best practice is regarding discontinued gift cards? Can these be destroyed? I know only visa/Amex/Mastercard is counted during inventory so I wasn't sure if there would be a repercussion for destroying the assorted restaurant and console cards we have.

    Archived What does your ETL-LOG do day to day?

    I'm curious to hear what other Backroom and Flow TL's think of their ETL-LOG. Do you typically get support? I'm asking because I'm currently in the situation where I have two months left till I transfer out as an ETL to my new store (currently a Sr.TL) but over the last 3 months I've essentially...

    Archived Flow Schedule that works

    So I'm facing the interesting situation of running both my backroom/instocks teams and now Flow for about 6 weeks. I'd like to get some feedback on what everyone's flow schedules look like on truck days. I understand ASANTS but I'm determined to make this work center green and it's going to...

    Archived Seasonal Backroom Ownership Report

    So the seasonal backroom ownership report is awful. I'm not sure why they would create a report that only provides a fill group and what type of location it is in, rather than the DPCI or the exact locations... Does anyone know of a better way to find the product other than pulling detail...

    Archived Mannequin Installation

    So this guy was the lucky candidate who was chosen to do the overnight for the mannequin installation. The one who has zero softlines experience. lol. Anyways, I'm bringing in a fairly large team of brand, softlines, instocks, and presentation team members who know the ins and outs of softlines...

    Archived Out of front end basics...

    At the beginning of my LOD shift yesterday I went to grab daily supplies for the front end to stage on a tub for the closing GSTL to grab at the beginning of her shift, walked into my backroom, no supplies... Well shit. Is anyone else back ordered? I pulled up the order reports our HR TM saves...

    Archived Fall 2015 Replenishment Simplification.

    Do we have any members that were part of this pilot? I have a few questions regarding the change to the instocks scan schedule. With the creation of 5 dedicated scan days, what has the workload been like? Also, for stores who have had the new CAF pull schedule, any tips?

    Archived Decode Process

    How does your store handle decode? (Discontinued). I've been having my team pull the decode for an entire fill group on Sunday nights and then myself/Instocks/Other leaders work it out throughout the next few days depending on the size. Clearly this is inefficient and I'm looking to see what...

    Archived Ask any Instocks/Backroom Questions :)

    A little background: Currently a Senior Logistics and Instocks Team Leader. I took over two departments consistently ranked in the bottom 5 of the group in any ranking report possible. My Logistics team is now ranked in the top 3, with a Backroom location accuracy just shy of a perfect 100% and...

    Archived Green Instocks Achieved!

    Finally reached the 6% OOS percentage marker! Top Research and Outs scans in the district definitely drove this. For anyone looking for advice on how to drop the score, I can tell you fron experience that an in-depth and extremely detailed scan routine is the slow path, yet it's definitely the...

    Archived Inventory for Receiving

    My backroom inventory is this week, my backroom is completely prepped except for receiving. This is my first year running it, does anyone have a guide or helpful tips for receiving? More specifically: Which vendor products are counted? How do you count and organize them? Do you count your...

    Archived Backroom Truck hours

    Hypothetically, if you had a 2500 piece truck, how many backroom hours would you say it requires to get all tasks completed? (AUTO's, CAF's, Backstock). I'm a push-all store, so I know results will vary, I'm just curious as to what type of hours other stores what assume they need for this size...
