Today at huddle our ETL's sputtered the same crap everyone else here on the forums have been hearing about. The super zone, power hour, thanksgiving bull crap, etc. Anyways, something was said about how the company uses some pretty useless hours just for someone to walk around our entire store scanning DPCI's to see if we have OUTS or not. That's literally all they do for days on end, so we can research that shit etc.
Anyways, as ridiculous as it is I saw it as an opportunity. I was thinking, since I'm usually the only person in GM (except with my TL) that when I'm working the repacks I could just write down these DPCI's of items that are truly OUTS. Yet, that process would take far too long and I really want to stream line it where I can just scan the item. Is there some kind of function I could use in the PDA's where it would allow me to create a list of all the DPCI's I've scanned? Then I could later just type in all those items in NOP to see if we even have them in our BR or at a 2nd location? If it truly is an item that should be researched, I would be able to then highlight it or take that DPCI and make a new list that I could then submit to my leaders?
Any ideas? I don't really want to take time away from what I'm doing, but if I'm already walking around with carts full of product from my repacks and I happen to come across a item that may in fact be an OUT. Why not see if it really is?
