No-one knows how the f*** that works.

specials are confirmed on P D A`S the moment the PDA downloads, the phg then has to allocate all 739 items to the callers office when they are brought back in. it is only specials on delivery cards that could cause problems.

I have to wait for all the collections to come in so I can despatch the specials. As for a break there's usually no cover for me so I just try to get it between customers.
You're right I used to do exactly the same and it's a real bitch - especially if some bastard breaks down or has a flat tyre. :d'oh!
