These are questions that I have as well, I am going to be mad if they just get set to the side for me to deal with the next day. That is a good way for stuff to get misplaced/not received. Or what if a non-food vendor calls during the day with a question, or even a food vendor? Do we have to juggle phone calls around until it gets to the right person?
And does a market person have to jump back and forth for receiving? Sure anyone can let the vendors in, but some of them need a PO before they go out, and sometimes they are outside for 5 minutes picking their order and sometimes it is over 30 depending on how big it is. There is no way to know how long a vendor is going to take to pull an order, and it could mean market could be jumping back and forth between their normal task and receiving.
