Archived What’s is ATO

[Teddy]

So I’m a softlines TM and I look at the schedule and see that I am scheduled for an ATO shift but I have no clue what that means

You will be pushing aisles A to O. So basically the entire store good luck.

You can skip seasonal aisles S.

We should make a sticky saying that shift tags/labels are ASANTS and are literally just made up. We shift tag almost everyone for every shift, and some of them are a seemingly nonsense abbreviation of an abbreviation with a number etc lol

Auto
Fill

I thought that’s what CAF was. The autos

 

[Far from newbie]

Auto fills used to be first thing in the morning to fill in sales floor capacities for items with backroom locations. I understood CAF’s as linking to what was sold through the registers throughout the day.
