Stockroom Training Checklist
The checklist (4 items)
Written as observable actions, so two trainers scoring the same shift land in the same place. In CrewSharp this is the Stockroom / Receiving station in the Retail starter set, filed under Stockroom, and every item here is editable.

What usually goes wrong
Safe lifting and box-cutter handling is the critical item and the one most likely to be treated as a formality. It is also the item on this list most likely to end a shift early, which is the practical reason it outranks the counting.

- Followed safe lifting and box-cutter handling
When to sign someone off
A workable bar for this station: no critical items missed, a score above a line you set for Stockroom / Receiving specifically rather than one number for the whole building, and observed on more than one shift with at least one of them busy. Then date it, so it can expire.
That last part is the one people skip. A sign-off with no date cannot be re-checked, which means a year later you have a record that says somebody was ready once.

Common questions
What is the most common stockroom training gap?
Receiving accurately against the paperwork. It is tedious, it happens under time pressure, and signing for a short shipment is invisible until someone goes looking for stock the system says you have.
What should be on a stockroom checklist?
The 4 items above cover it: followed safe lifting and box-cutter handling, received and counted shipments accurately, kept the stockroom organized and labeled, and the rest of the list. Keep it in that range. Fewer and a pass proves very little; many more and trainers stop finishing it during a real shift.
Which items should count as critical?
On this station, one item is marked critical: followed safe lifting and box-cutter handling. Missing one means not ready, regardless of the total score, because these are the failures that cannot be corrected after the fact.
Scoring it is the part that lasts
Run this Stockroom / Receiving checklist on a tablet between rushes and CrewSharp keeps the rest: who is signed off, when it was last checked, and which item your crew misses most.
