You have the problem I had doing this years survey summed up quite well Researchr. Corporate hands down programs and goals for us to meet at the store level. Your store does the best it can to work within these parameters of these programs with the resources we have. You try to post honest...

We went straight SAR months ago and combined it with the 4x4 walks. Broke the store up into grids and it works great. Honestly if you can't scan on truck days until push and backstock are done when you have a 48 hr truck filter what use is the task list. SAR shows you multiple locations, so you...

This might be the dumbest rollout I have seen in years. 3 days of task list driven research and two of them are truck days. No scanning till your truck is worked and backstocked. So that will pretty much be 1 day of research for most stores if you follow the program. You are supposed to scan all...

There is no such company rule on Team Leads not being able to demote. I did it 3 years ago, the issue is its a big financial hit ($3 or more per hour) and you have no consistency in your hours. Most stores (and especially fuck bunny HRBP's) claim there is one because it ruins the chance of...

If we are talking about what constitutes the Scans with Locations metric, no I am not surprised. If you are going to emphasize speed over accuracy with your flow team they will look for short cuts. Backstock challenge should catch that(unless its Dairy/Frozen push) anyway if your people...

If we are going back to Outs scanning we might as well start waving the white flag. I'm a lot more interested in all the items that are acknowledged as being on our trucks that never show up. And I'm a lot more interested in why we are being discouraged in every way imaginable not to research...

Check your Raincheck Effectiveness report, your score should be in the toilet if you still need to scan. Our group leadership stopped us from doing RIGS when they decided to cook the Research with Locations % metric so we do very few rainchecks anymore. I still scan in the few I do figuring...

1. Shelf capacity is how much overstock can fit in an aisle before the gondola collapses. 2. I don't understand English after 8:00 am. 3. Slow down, they will send us home if we finish the truck. 4. We don't have time to rotate dates in grocery! 5. If its too heavy, it must be...

We are a B volume Supertarget and have been doing instocks with less than 40 hours a week. We have been under this same directive to EXF scan any section before doing research and doing EXF scans for new POGS before SAL research for a while. This was not something started at store level by our...

I read an email from our Group AP Market Leader in October that spelled out pretty clearly what happened to our instocks process(or lack of one since). AP is focused on controlling what they deem "UNNECESSARY RESEARCH" by focusing on count update dollars from your scanning on a weekly basis. In...

Will keying in a critical low amount in research generate a DC label drop for replenishment or does the count have to be zero for this to occur?

My question to your ETL's would be why EXF's. Best practice is very specific on this for new POG sets. You do your reset, work any trapped staged pallets then do a NEW POG fill. Any holes left are to be STAND ALONE RESEARCHED. Look up the best practice, look it up on my support. There are...

Other than the bottom shelf of the diabetic test strip endcap (latex gloves and alcohol wipes) pharmacy people order all the rest through Mckesson. Task list will take you to the pharmacy location but you would have to change counts there and on your cold medicine aisle for it to update ( most...

Fixing it the right way would be improving the accuracy of your flow team. Thats what the reesearch with loc % score points out, where your flow is inefficient so you can find ways to increase the accuracy of that fill group. Choosing between exf and outs is really just covering the problem up...

The big push on red cards is due to the sale of the card business to TD Bank. We no longer underwrite the cards, assess the credit worthiness of the card applicant or are stuck when the card owner defaults. We receive a generous portion of the profits from TD bank on the interest paid on the...

RIGS serve a variety of other purposes than count updates and rainchecks. A good part of your stores data integrity is accumulated and scored based on your response to RIGS. Ever get a RIG for an item that has 10 OH, a shelf capacity of 8 and 0 in location as backstock? I absolutely agree with...

Saw the prompt in research today. Looking into any new uses but that used to stand for RISER items(like the big box toys during Christmas season) Will post a specific answer when I find out.

Its wonky but it does eventually work. Functionality is limited to certain things (401k/ benefit updates, paycheck viewing) I have never been able to access schedule and timeclock functions. And your SOL if you have a MAC.

The MMB specialist was toast 2 years ago. You did well to last as long as you have. Your best best is to work on excelling in driving attachments in Electronics because that is the business focus in the area. Do that well and then you can tie in MMB as a bonus. Your STL will see the relavence of...

If you have product located in the backroom for a researched item you will not adjust the count at all, you will generate a pull for the items shelf capacity minus the amount you keyed in. If you want to update it you need to pull all on hands off location then stand alone research it and key in...
