Checkshelf alerts
During the Check Shelf Order function, the DLA will
display Checkshelf alert messages that can help you identify
items that may belong on a different shelf (even though they
are in the correct shelf order for the shelf that you just
scanned).
"Checkshelf" items appear near the beginning or end of the
shelf.
1. When you see a Checkshelf Alert, locate the item and
check if it is correctly shelved.
If the verify option is enabled, the DLA displays a verify
icon for each item that meets the verify criteria. If the
item meets the verify criteria and is a Check-shelf item,
the verify icon is displayed and there will be no
indication of a Check shelf alert.
The Verify feature is only available at sites that use
RFID Security.
2. If the item is misshelved, remove it from the shelf for
future re-shelving.
Excessive Checkshelf alerts
To avoid excessive alert messages, you can disable
(uncheck) the “Checkshelf” alerts setting (Options screen)
when checking the shelf order of shelving carts.
(See Enabling Check Shelf alerts on page 22.)
