Checklist

Review the reorder point after one full selling cycle.
Record the arrival condition with photographs on the day of delivery.
Verify that artwork matches the approved compliance template.
Request batch photographs and a packing list prior to shipment.
Agree in advance who pays for return freight on a defect claim.
Keep certificates current and filed against the exact model name.
