Updates to Live steering and Promised delivery time

Starting Wednesday 16.10, you’ll notice updates to the Live steering feature in the Activity dashboard and the Promised Delivery Time (PDT) in the Orders dashboard. These changes are designed to make both dashboards more useful to you:

Live steering (Activity dashboard)

Removing the “% orders fulfilled on time” in the header: based on your feedback, we’ve removed this metric because it was causing confusion with the "on-trip compliance" metric and wasn’t directly actionable.

Promised delivery time (PDT) (Orders dashboard)

The “Promised delivery time” metric has been improved to align with the PDT shown to customers. This updated metric now reflects the end of the delivery window visible to customers.

Customer communication, redelivery and refund guidelines

We have created guidelines for responding to certain situations related to orders:

1. Redelivering an order

All redelivery requests must be validated with Customer Care via the Slack workflow!

Orders are eligible for redelivery only if:

  • The entire order or a full bag is missing or incorrect

  • The value of missing or incorrect items exceeds 10 euros

  • Riders are available to complete the redelivery

2. Calling a customer

Call the customer when:

  • The Rider can’t locate the customer

  • You need to inform the customer of a redelivery after validating it with Customer Care

Do not call the customer when:

  • Items are missing or damaged

  • Offering alternative products to replace missing items.

3. Requesting refunds for items on Slack

Refunds must be processed during the picking stage. If the order has already been completed, let the customer submit their complaint to Customer Care. Do not request a refund for a single item via Slack, as the item refund workflow will be closed.

ℹ️ More about redeliveries and refunds on Zendesk and on our slides

Items skipped the previous day: overview now by cluster

We’ve organized the restocking list for items skipped the previous day by City Managers’ hub clusters. To access the list, click the link and select the spreadsheet corresponding to your City Manager.

Each hub’s list shows the products that were not properly restocked the day before. These lists are updated automatically every day. For a smoother restocking process, we encourage you to review the list daily.

The list will be published in the late afternoon, so please check around that time.

The changes will go live tonight between 1am and 7am, so please move the products to their new locations tonight after closure/tomorrow morning.

🤓Don’t forget the back stock! When moving products to their new shelf, always remember to check and reposition any backstock on the top shelves as well!

New rack optimization code

We’ve developed a rack optimization code. For this reason, most of today's shelf changes will occur on a single rack as part of an effort to optimize certain racks.
The code focuses on two main functions:

  • Optimize picking performance

  • Optimize space utilization
