Archived Backroom New Hire Label Question

[josemvelas]

Hello!
I just started working at Target last night and I am still a bit confused as to where to place materials. I get lost when on the box it says for example C16(3):1-2-1. What does that all mean? I understand that C16 means the aisle and that three represents one of the shelves. Can anyone please help me? Thank you

(3) refers to the "planogram" that starts on the third 4-foot section on the aisle. Start counting from the main aisle, not the back aisle. 1- means the first 4-foot section of that planogram, 2- is the second shelf up, 1 is the first position on the left.

Thanks @RetailWorld
On the pick label, there can be a few "indicators" that dictate what to do with the product. On the label, it will be near the "Ad 08/21" in the example. If there is a "P", it means it needs to be pushed out. If there is an "S", it means stage. "B" means it's backstock...and part of the backrooms metrics is making sure that all product that has a "B" indicator gets backstocked. Otherwise your team is being inefficient and taking stuff out to the floor when they don't have to. If your store is a "Push All" store, this is how you tell the difference between what you need to take to the floor and what stays in the back without scanning everything on the line.

With the change to myPerformance though, it could be that this isn't a key metric anymore. I haven't dived into the backroom metrics with myPerformance.

Typically your NOP product will have some kind of info on the pick label that will give you a bit of insight on what's going on with it. If it's on AD, it could be there will be staged off area on the floor...or it could be that the planogram isn't in the system yet, so there will be a T indicator(Transition) with the date letting you know when it will be set. But if it's NOP or D-Code at this point, been in your store for awhile, and it looks like there will be no space or planogram for it in the foreseeable future...mySupport it, and request a CLR markdown on it.

This is a sold answer except for one thing. Everything counts from the racetrack (main aisle), so the last 1 in 1-2-1 would be the first position on the shelf, which is not necessarily the left. It would be the first on the left in a standard aisle and the first on the right in a reverse aisle.
