Inventory 📦

[SuperTarget]

A couple weeks ago me and another coworker went to another store to help with their remodel. I was so glad I could help them with Set Workload.

Because I agreed to help with a remodel store and because my store director must love me, he volunteered me to help yet another store but this time with Inventory. I agreed to help again because it’s roughly the same travel distance as I did before. This 2nd store that I’m going to is in a pilot for the new Selfcount app where all inventory counts are done in-house. That will be a completely new experience for me. I’ve never used this new app and I don’t really know how it differs from the typical Target inventory process.

On top of all that, my store is doing inventory next week and I’ve been assigned to count A&A because I think WIS does the rest for my store.

So much going on, which has pushed my training for team leader out a little bit but I’m happy to not only be helping my store but another fellow store with inventory.

Am I doing too much lol?

I love helping other stores. I enjoy doing different things and as a tl I tend to be doing the same thing most days. Definitely more then I did as a TM. Meeting new people amd seeing different ways of doing things is probably the best part.

The self count inventory is basically new for everyone so you can all learn together. Hopefully they learned some things from the stores that piloted it last year.

Does inventory affect BRLA? I thought it strictly was financials/on hands and did not correct things like baffles/ghosts. Am I wrong in this?

It didn’t used to but now it does. Also if it’s unsure or it seems off it’ll drop into your backroom auditors audits the following day as well.

Didn’t want to make yet another thread so a slight necro on an existing old thread.

two things to spell doom

no prep inventory
RGIS or whoever they morphed into

bonus fact

TMs are counting the backroom.

the hilarity will be epic.
