The first checkpoint. Before a single stand goes to a store, the QR on the shipping packaging is scanned when the pallet reaches the regional warehouse. The brand knows the material arrived, and sees any shortfall in transit while it is still someone's to answer for.
Two checkpoints, two codes
Each display carries two Smart Tracker codes, each pointing to its own scan. At the
warehouse, the receiver scans the code on the packaging as the stock
comes off the truck (Level 1). Later, the installer scans a separate code on the
back of the stand at the store (Level 2). Both codes are tied to the
same display, so its journey joins up across the two. Level 1 answers "did it reach
the warehouse we shipped it to," which is a transporter and receiver question. Level 2
answers "did it go up on a shelf," which is a store-crew question. Splitting the two
is what lets the brand aim the right question at the right party.

Bengaluru RDC, BommasandraGPS ▾
Matched to this warehouse from GPS. Tap to pick another if it is not right.
45 of 50 expected5 to go
Count builds as each unit is scanned in against the 50 planned for Bengaluru.
Scan each unit off the truck. The stand-back scan comes later, at the store.
What Level 1 proves
Each scan writes a warehouse-in record against that exact unit:
Which city warehouse received it (from GPS)
Received count vs the quantity planned for that city
Packaging condition: sealed / opened / damaged
Receiver name, plus GPS, date and time, automatic
Why it matters
A stand that never reaches the warehouse can never go up on a shelf. Level 1
catches that loss at the earliest point, so a transit shortfall is never
mistaken for a store crew that did not install.

Reads at a glance
Mumbai, Delhi, and Chennai received their full 50. Bengaluru is 5 short: five units
that left the dispatch point but never reached the warehouse. That is a transporter
and receiver question, answered here on day one, not a mystery discovered weeks
later when the shelves are counted.
