flexible fulfillment

Under the operation Target is testing at the New Jersey facility, called a “flow center,” the company sends shipments to stores more frequently and in smaller lots tailored more precisely to demand rather than shipping big cases of products, Preston Mosier, Target’s senior vice president of...

So yesterday they built our Wifi stanstion in our dedicated spaces for Drive up. Wondering if anyone has opinons on how this will be, stories etc. Oh, I love the jackets and umbrellas we got for the TMs doing it. And the magnets. anyone else get magnets of the logo?

?

Does anyone know when ur scheduled “order pick up” what u do? And does anyone have any infromation about the parking spots reserved for order pick ups? Like do we go out there and give them it? Or is it just a parking spot they reserve so they can come in and out?

I'm assuming it's 1) open Zebra 2) Pack & ship app 3) scan cart 4) ????

So at least half of the phone calls we get for GS I would say are guests wanting to extend their pick up time frame. Usually letting the guest know that they will get an email with the option to extend it a day will do the trick, but every now and then, the guest will ask it to be extended for...

Hello! TL;DR- I would like to ask my ETL for my schedule to be based around the SFS daily deadline times in order to make and keep our metrics green. So I've been working at my Target for a little over 5 months now. When I first came in, SFS had not yet been introduced to our store. I worked...

I did an order while i was on lunch so it would be ready by the time i got off work. I got my items but one is broken and i think it was done on purpose. Is there a way to check to see who pulled it? Also does my name show up when placing the order?

Please clarify... Let say, I have an order to pick 2 items (same dpci) and I have to go to the backroom to get the items, I scan the location label, then I scan the items in that location, found the item. The order is 2 needed, then the prompt is how many did you pick? There are four items in...

Hello, I don’t post on here often, so sorry to bother you all. I have a shift where I am doing order pickups coming up. I unofficially knew how to pick items and put them in hold on the pda just by being observant and asking questions without actually ever being scheduled; however, I heard that...

Not sure if this is the right place to post this. But recently our store got rid of PDA''s in Ship from Store. So we use Zebras for everything. For FA's and for picking and packing. My question is, do store leaders get notified when you can't find items on the Zebra? I know they are always...

Is anyone else's store creating a SFS (or Flexible Fulfillment?) Team Leader position? Ours definitely will be starting this Q4, but there are very few details about it so far. The only thing known for sure is that it will no longer fall under Backroom leadership and will be its own...

Does anyone know how to add Ship to Store items to the store's counts? We have some orders that we found that haven't been picked up in months. We're having trouble removing them from their hold locations and adding them to our counts. It's not as easy to just remove them and put them on the...

Who processes the ship to store orders at your store? I do them at my store but I'm hearing that at other stores they are taken to guest service and are checked in by them.

What (if anything) is your store doing to improve the order pick up experience for the guest?

I just posted another question a few minutes ago about applying directly to the cash office, and now that my hopes and dreams have been shattered about doing that, lol, I'm wondering about applying to be a flex fill TM (I think the official title is Online Order Fulfillment TM). I worked at...

Does anyone have any tips for leading SFS? Time limits for picking/packing? Grouping batches? When should they ask for help? Do they also pick OPU? Since the scores have been raised been having issues with fulfillment. Especially in Softlines. I've had issues with some of this before but was...

We have all the equipment, but have not been greenlighted to start because of our offsite. I keep asking if we can use the technology for flex and drastic counts but keep getting the run around

My store has horrible RTS metrics. I am following up with my team to make sure they are scanning the items into the correct locations. We finished last year at 24% YTD. I have had multiple discussions with AP and front end leaders. If anyone has any advice on how to fix this, I am open to...

Had a visit recently and one of the group leaders hinted at the speed of trailer unloading going faster in the coming year. They said that most, if not all, of the product will be palletized. Sounds good for stores, not so much for DCs. Anyone else hear anything about this?
