Calculation and observed tool result

Record A

Contents rows sum to 4 items. Check each row, unit and packaging.

Recorded quantity: 4 items.

Record B

Contents rows sum to 6 items. Check each row, unit and packaging.

Recorded quantity: 6 items.

Carry out this task

  1. Open the linked tool for Record A.
  2. Retire or correct the old mixed-carton record after creating the actual new boxes.
  3. Check each result separately; follow the interpretation before retaining both records as physical stock.

What the result means

The new labels describe different destinations and separate counts.

A mistake to avoid

Keeping the old mixed entry unchanged would duplicate its contents.
