Hi Patrick,

I think you don't want to hear this......(you know it already)

The extra energy you are putting in the shipping process, should be 
put(only half of it needed) in your logistics.  If the reorder reports, 
follow up shortage and overdue reports are maintained on a daily basis
and 
the static data(reorder point safety stock, leadtime...)is correct in
the 
system,  you will get only picklists that can be completely
delivered.(98%)

That is the way to improve your delivery reliability.

Kind Regards,

Lucas
