MEGATHREAD Signing Tips, Tricks and Quips (along with howls of despair)

[OldSchoolVet]

Anyone know if there is a way to change the aisle number for a pog when setting, after you have already confirmed the location? Or do you just have to go through all the steps to finalize the build, untie it and start again?

You have to Finalize the Build before you can untie and start over. It's the step right before you do the pulls.

Anyone else have issues when pog missing labels when printing? Usually it's items that have multiple locations in the pog. Freaking pain having to reprint them individually.

Yes! Discovered this when setting in Womens Hosiery last month. I could maybe understand it a bit if the items had the same location but at least for the POGs I saw it on, the items had different locations. Super weird!

The "lulz, I'm not printing all that" issue seems to affect labels for DPCIs with multiple locations on the POG. Happy hand-batching from the line listing (and hopefully you're lucky enough to be allowed to back-button to the line listing instead of getting dumped to the Scan screen and having to find your way back through a series of dungeon side-chambers).

Had the issue while setting men's basics this week. POG added an additional row for the large size (F2 and F3) but wouldn't print the labels for F2 - I had to reuse the old ones.

How did you guys label this?

I haven’t even thought about it yet because of my store not having any sticky labels left.

Did you get all 7 of the premium wrap shippers? We only got 3 of out of the 7

Don't forget the extra tall pegboard too! 😆

Way back when, if you tied a reverse POG and then printed a paper copy of it, it would print the schematics already in reverse for you. This is going to really mess with veteran POG setter's brains! But it will help with newbies learning.

Instead of having to mentally flip it all these years, now I’m having to mentally tell myself not to flip it.

Yes, just today! This was for a side cap that's part of an end cap POG and I was missing a few of the labels that should have had multiples. Plus another one really had me confused, but a label in the middle of a shelf wasn't there. Thought I'd accidentally thrown it away, but nope, just not there.

How many sheets of the green backer paper did everyone get? We only got 5 sheets, yet they call for 20 sheets

We got 6.

How nice it will be to set mini, Christmas, amp the same week plus, every thing else.

At this point I'm just happy for POG to slow down.

I’ve had to go through all the steps and then tie it again. I wish there was an undo button since there’s been times I realized after I hit confirm

An undo button will be added February 30th

I kind of had to vmg it. I group similar ornaments together, see how many empty spots I have at the end then spread them out to use all spaces that makes sense. Then I sticky them.

Crap I need to check how many premium wrap shippers we have. Do they come pre-assembled in big boxes like before?

 

[BKop16]

Did the myday update stop everyone else from seeing the POGs in the set tool?

No, you have to assemble them yourself, ours was in a flat box that only contained the 3

 

[BKop16]

So how's everyone feeling about the safety of those trees on the ornament bins?

We got 5 out of the 10 premium needed. Also missing the Mint shipper.

The Mint comes as 3 different shipments on the RDC truck. A left wrapping paper shipper, one with all boxes, and a right wrapping paper shipper.

Ahh thanks. Must be on a pallet somewhere
