Prepare the dock appointment and keep the physical handling unit recognizable across the shift handoff.
Inventory Clerk records the load number and carrier, then adds dock and seal context as it becomes known. Use a load identity the receiving team can match to its operating documents.
Inventory Clerk records the stop sequence, appointment and storage location. Confirm the appointment through the team's operating procedure and retain a Missed outcome when the expected stop is not fulfilled.
Inventory Clerk updates the load and stop as the carrier arrives and unloading proceeds. Compare the current record with actual dock activity before handing the work to another shift.
Inventory Clerk checks the license plate, item, quantity and location of the physical unit. Record the custody owner and the state that describes the unit, including Staged, Held or Damaged where appropriate.
Inventory Supervisor reviews logistics exceptions alongside the relevant stock request evidence. Keep the request's authorized inventory action identifiable during the handoff so the team can later reconcile its stock effect.
