pog

Some, not all, of our seasonal pogs, sprinkler and hoses for example, have a new set for 2/12, but the pog number is invalid. Anyone else having this issue? It wouldn't be such an issue except that the footages change.

Looking ahead to try and figure out a good time for taking some time off, I was checking into when my end caps expire and when aisles come up for revision or transition. OTC end caps were last set December 18 (or thereabouts) and expire February 5 and the aisles are mostly due the week of March...

Sorta hoping there's someone lurking here who has influence on how POGs are designed. Doing the Allergy transition a few weeks ago got me thinking about it - why do I need to have 10 facings (that's right, 10) of the same medicine, same size package? And that's for the Up & Up equivalents to...

where can I see photos and names of the fixtures (accessories) that are used for the planograms?

After working on so many POGs just lately and noticing how goofy they can be, I'm wondering how they're figured out. OTC uses a lot of those self-pusher contraptions and when I was setting yesterday, I had a couple of places in one POG were I set three facings instead of the two indicated on the...

Is there any way to get out of learning how to set ?

Our district hasn't allowed us to put up cardboard sidecaps for at least a year and sometimes we don't receive it. Does it count on set on time report? I know flex POGs no longer count anymore, just wondering...

Whose brilliant idea is it to dump all the personal care transitions/revisions (80+ hours) plus all the sales planners (another 8 hours maybe) in the same week? Yes, I know I can start working on them two weeks ahead, but really, couldn't the SPs have waited until the following week?

For those of you who did a remodel last yr, did you have a separate plano team for the remodel or did the normal plano team help with the remodel? Who did normal planos?

How are your guys Christmas set coming along? Since Target seem to lack early set notes (what's new) I thought we should make our own. I found a few issues and things I wish I knew beforehand. But I'll list a few... - Issues Adult decor is 6 sections, but map only calls for 5. Had to find...

I heard through a mySupport there is a new pog generation program being integrated that will make things better like recognizing poles and such. Anyone else know anything?

A few months ago, there was communication about the litter wall being too high (it set with 5 shelves) and that it should be reduced to 4 shelves (which is what it used to be years ago). I had never set it with 5 shelves (we didn't have the shelves to do it and we realized then it was too...

Hey all! Currently working a remodel and have a question regarding MySupports. I have received a response to multiple questions saying that they have attached a copy of an updated adjacency and/or POG but have never actually seen the attachment. Am I missing something? The only attachments I...

A bit of a rant, but I'm normally the person who set gift cards and it is SUCH A DRAG to set if you want it by POG. The revision they make us do every 2-3 months is too often IMO and a waste of time. For example, if I were to add or delete 3-5 gift cards in a 3-4ft section, I would have to...

There was a couple endcap ideas I suggested as a joke but some are actually pretty good ideas. My main one that continuously gets shot down is my Beer pong endcap idea. It's simple. Back when I worked in paper the one thing that I always struggled with was the enormous amount of red solo cups...

Almost all of our front lane endcap pogs have been ghost tied and have other product flexed onto them. So, when I pull my 141s, I am pulling product that has no location up front. Super irritating. When is it okay to untie these pogs and not negatively affect a metric? Some of them don’t...

I've been through transition 2-3 times in my area (personal care and OTC) and I think I do a pretty good job of it. But I'm always looking for ways to improve. What are your best tips and tricks? What seemed like a great idea and really flopped (aka "avoid this like the plague!")? How do you...

With the paper pog, I see the measurements between the shelfs in inches. But what part of the shelf are we measuring? So say from the 2nd shelf to the 3rd shelf there is supposed to be 10 inches between them, am I measuring from the bottom edge of the second shelf to the bottom edge of the...

How much product has to go on the end caps? (Do the end caps have to be completely full of product?) -- If 18 gray towels are supposed to go on the end cap, but we only have 6, do we move 5 or 6 to the end cap, so the end cap can appear full? That leaves the home location with only one towel or...

Back in the day, there used to be a resource on Workbench that listed all the planograms that were tied and where they were tied. When the Set Workload tool came out, it went away. Does anyone know if there's a new resource somewhere (Greenfield, Workbench…) that shows all the tied planograms...
