Alteration Docket Types
In PalletWatch reports you may see different docket types, some of which relate to corrections and rejections. They are:
- Transfer - normal docket.
- Reversal - reversal of a normal docket.
- Correction - correction of a normal docket, e.g. date, quantity, etc.
- Rejection - rejection of a normal docket.
- Replacement - reinstatement of a normal docket.
Corrections
To correct a normal docket it must have a reversal so docket types involved in a correction would be:
Transfer
Reversal
Correction
Rejections
A rejection would have two docket types:
Transfer
Rejection
Reinstatement
If a rejected docket is to be reinstated then docket types would be:
Transfer
Rejection
Replacement
It should be noted that reinstatements of transfer off dockets need to be authorised to the pallet hire companies by the trading partner who initially rejected the transfer. Reinstatements of Transfer Offs (Replacements) must be followed with your trading partners. They will not be resolved simply by creating a reinstatement (replacement) transaction.
