Click and Collect Handover Log
Know exactly which parcels are on the shelf, which have gone and what was checked before each one left, so an order that goes missing can be traced.

The till, the stockroom, the shelf edge and the routines that open and close the door.
A shop runs on a dozen small counts a day, and the ones that are not written down are the ones that go missing at stocktake. These are the counts, the routines and the records between them. They set no margins, no markdown rules and no refund policy — yours does, and these record what happened under it.
Know exactly which parcels are on the shelf, which have gone and what was checked before each one left, so an order that goes missing can be traced.
Trace a fixture change, a stock movement or a missing line back to the trade visit that caused it, instead of finding it at stocktake with no explanation.
Stop special orders and reserves living on scraps of paper behind the till, so a customer is told when their item lands and a reserve is released on the day you said it would be.
See at a glance which departments carried the day and which did not, in a form you can lay side by side week after week.
Close the loop on every return so a credit note that never arrives is noticed, and the stock you wrote off is the stock you were actually credited for.
Have a carton count in your own hand next to every signature, so a short delivery is a claim and not an argument.
Turn the fitting rooms from the shop's biggest blind spot into a counted area, with the count made at the moment it can still be checked.
Learn when the shop is actually busy and when it is only being browsed, so rotas and staffing follow the pattern rather than a guess.
Know what has been sold and what is still out there to be spent, so a card presented at the till can be checked against the record of its sale.
See whether a quiet week for sign-ups is because nobody joined or because nobody was asked, which are different problems with different fixes.
Turn a mystery shop report into a short list of things that actually got done, rather than a score that was read out once and filed.
Find the gaps between the plan and the bay while you are standing in front of it, and leave a record head office or the next shift can act on.
Keep the shelf label and the till telling the same story, and leave a trail showing why a line was reduced and how much of it was left when it was.
Launch an offer complete and take it down complete, with no promotional price left on the till and no point-of-sale still up a week after the end date.
See refunds as a pattern rather than a series of one-offs, and match the till's refund total to a named reason and an authorising initial every time.
Change the floor over in one planned push rather than a fortnight of half-cleared bays, with every outgoing line given a destination before it comes off.
Catch the missing label, the label under the wrong product and the price that does not match the till before a customer does, and fix the cause not the symptom.
Know at a glance who can open the shop tonight, and make sure a leaver's keys come back and the alarm code is changed and everyone told.
Open the same shop the same way whoever has the keys, and close it with nothing left on, unlocked or uncounted.
Stop the counter being left because a break was assumed rather than covered, and keep the week's hours in one place for whoever does the pay.
Count the shop the way it is laid out rather than the way the stock list is sorted, so every bay gets counted once and the gaps to a full shelf are visible on the same line as the count.
Give stocktake variance a story. Losses written down when they are found show which cause is costing the shop, instead of one unexplained figure at the end of the period.
Stop overstock going missing in the back. A drawn plan with coded racks, and a list that matches the labels on the shelves, means a new starter can find the stock and a delivery goes to the right bay first time.
See the whole week's floats across every till on one page, and spot the drawer or the shift that is repeatedly over or short before it turns into a stocktake surprise.
Know how long each window has stood and which stock is tied up in it, so items come back into stock, get marked down or go back to the prop box instead of being forgotten behind the glass.
