Where Central Storage & Warehouse compliance usually get stuck?

Why do 945 shipping advice documents get rejected?
Incorrect or missing shipment identifiers that don't match the original 940 warehouse shipping order cause immediate rejection.
How do barcode labels cause ASN failures?
Labels with wrong SSCC or carton counts break the 856 ship notice, leading to inventory discrepancies and chargebacks.
What triggers SFTP transmission errors?
Unstable connections or incorrect file naming conventions disrupt the delivery of 940 and 945 documents to Central Storage & Warehouse.
