Key updates you can't miss __________________________________

Rider widget and other changes in Activity/Live steering dashboard šŸ“²

Tomorrow, Wednesday 11th, We will introduce the Rider widget and other changes to the Activity dashboard in Hub Portal at Hub level:

  • The Rider widget is now visible within the Riding Performance section, which has moved to the right, while retaining all the previous information under Riding.

  • The Inside Hub and Inventory columns have been combined into a single column on the left, with no changes to the information displayed.

The purpose of these changes is to ensure that all relevant information is readily available at a glance in the Activity dashboard, optimized for display on the big screen. Over time, the Orders dashboard will evolve into a dedicated desktop page for detailed analysis of order-specific data.

What’s next?

Soon we will also add an OA widget, and progressively remove the rider widget from the Orders Dashboard.

Stock level now included in BBD Checks and other updates šŸ“²

Starting Wednesday 11th, you'll be able to see the current stock of a product during BBD checks. This will help you identify if there are additional products in the backstock that need to be checked.

We've also introduced other improvements to the checks:

  • BBD and Freshness Checks will now be automatically deleted when the stock hits zero, just like Low Stock Checks.

  • We added a rule to the Low Stock Checks to not include items that have been counted in the previous 4 days.

With these improvements, we already reduced the amount of unnecessary checks by around 60%, while keeping the issue rates stable!

Bike and equipment articles available again in Coupa 🚲

Some of the articles below were not available in Coupa for some time, but you can now order them again! Please order only what you actually need:

  • Handlebar gloves keep the Riders’ hands warm and dry - even in heavy rain.

  • The material is 100% waterproof.

  • The updated design has wider openings to make sure the Riders can easily pull their hands off the gloves.

  • Please order no more than 10 pairs, unless approved otherwise.

  • We might also send the remaining ones from the old design to make use of them.

  • If the QR-code strap is broken/ripped off, you can reorder a new one so that you can keep using the S-Container.

  • Reminder: all S-containers should have green QR-Codes. You can order them here.

Reminder: Re-Delivery Check Workflow šŸ”

With the introduction of the Help Center to request item refunds, it’s crucial to be more careful with re-deliveries. That’s why it’s important to always use the re-delivery check workflow in your hub’s Customer Care Slack channel for every re-delivery, including quick corrections that Riders handle during their trips. This ensures we prevent situations where customers receive both a re-delivery and a refund.

Important to keep in mind:

Only entire bags or orders that were forgotten or delivered to the wrong customer may be re-delivered. Single items should not be re-delivered. This is because it’s often more expensive to re-deliver an item than processing a refund, and re-deliveries negatively impact your hubs’ and your employee’s UTRs.

Reminder: pest precautions šŸ€

It’s getting cold outside and pests want to come inside…

Why is this a problem?

In many cases, pests:

  • Carry pathogens

  • Contaminate places with their excrements, hairs etc

  • Damage products and packagings

  • Cause harm to the facility

Not taking action when noticing infestations can lead to the closure of a hub.

How to report a pest infestation

When traces of an infestation are recognized in the hub, Shift Leads or Hub Managers must open a ticket on Zendesk under ā€œPest problemā€. If you need to escalate it, use the escalation flow in the related Slack channel.
​
​

We strongly recommend you to hang these posters in the hub to upkeep your safety:

Attention: the traps in the print above must be handled with care!
