Where GI Joes compliance usually gets stuck?
Most compliance failures occur when physical carton labels, packing slips, and ASN data do not match.
Do packing slips duplicate label data?
GI Joes rejects shipments if the slip reflects an outdated PO version; align all document versions to the final 850 before printing.
Is the invoice reconciled with the shipment?
Invoice errors delay payment; ensure the 810 totals equal the shipped quantities from the 856 and agreed PO prices.
