Heat-treat verification before putaway — Valley Gas 2" fittings
Purpose
Keep unverified heat-treat material out of pick locations so the utility audit never finds a mixed lot in stock.
When this applies
Every afternoon-truck receipt of Valley Gas 2" carbon steel fittings (AF-2CS-SG) at RCV-D2.
Steps on the floor
- Stage the pallet at RCV-D2. Do not scan to the PO yet.
- Read the heat-treat stamp on the fitting body — not the box, not the packing list.
- Match the stamp to the lot listed in the supplier cert pack traveling with the pallet.
- If the stamp is present and matches: release to putaway against the PO.
- If the stamp is missing or does not match: move the whole pallet to QC-2 and text Maria. No partial release.
- Leave the pallet out of cycle count scope until QC clears it.
What good looks like
Stamp photographed, cert pack page matched, pallet either released or sitting in QC-2 within the same shift.
What to do when it fails
If it was already put away, pull it back from the slot, quarantine in QC-2, and log an exception against FX-014. Never adjust the system of record to make the count agree.
