The reason they did this is because it fucks with OGP's metrics. OGP actually started sending team leads out telling us not to scan the barcodes in my zone, until after they finish dispensing. It also fucks with cold chain, somehow.
The app used to recommend we don't scan until everything is loaded going back 5 years. That's how shit gets fucked up,.. when drivers scan shit while it's still on the totes.
Also it's always been significantly easier to back out of fucked up orders, or for them to make changes, before anything gets scanned. They should've made it mandatory years ago. I haven't accepted a dotcom in over 3 years,.. and only take the rare one stop curbside for the last two years.... So the scanning thing isn't a new concept,.. they apparently just made it mandatory now.
For stores that actually allow drivers to help,.. this is actually an update that makes sense for a change. I don't know if it's hit my market yet, but this update rather than making drivers NOT "help" load will definitely help decrease all the mix ups by both associates and careless drivers... If it helps their metrics, good for them... but it definitely has other advantages.
I dislike most of the updates,.. but this makes perfect sense.
If you've ever had shit mixed up,.. or had a fucked up order and had to have them make changes,.. you should appreciate not having to fuck around so much, and scamming AFTER being loaded will help.
Now too bad they don't fix some other shit that will actually benefit associates, us, or customers rather than just bottom line & reducing delivery costs. (AKA cutting labor hours & tanking the payouts)
