# How Can I Reduce Order Errors Between Takeaway and Packing?

You reduce errors by showing the packer a clear checklist for each order, with items, extras, and notes, and requiring a confirmation before the bag is closed and marked ready for pickup or delivery. On **Jestor**, this runs through a packing view in the orders **table** with a confirmation step.

A missing sauce or a wrong item is a small mistake that creates a large reaction. For delivery guests, the error is only discovered at home, and the refund or remake costs more than the item itself.

## What packing mistakes cost

- Refunds and remakes for missing items
- Poor reviews from guests who found a mistake at home
- Drivers waiting while a mistake is fixed
- Staff stress during peak hours

## How a packing check works

- The packer sees the **order** with all items and notes
- Each item is ticked off before closing the bag
- The order is marked ready only when the check is complete
- Errors reported by guests are linked to the order for review

## Why Jestor fits this use case

- A visible checklist reduces mistakes under pressure
- Guest reports show where errors are most common
- Staff can be coached with real examples
- This scales from a small takeaway to a high-volume operation
