## Quick answer

For courier companies, start with a **consignment address-and-proof worksheet** for the courier desk coordinator. Prepare address and evidence correspondence before announcing a delivery outcome. Righthand can help prepare the administrative draft from inputs you authorize; staff review its evidence and decide the next action.

## Three desk tasks

### 1. Check destination details

Flag suite differences in accepted source material.

### 2. Match supplied proof

Keep unidentified images outside a confirmed delivery state.

### 3. Route change requests

Prepare rerouting questions for authorized staff.

## Who owns each handoff?

| Input | Proposed assistant deliverable | Responsible person |
| --- | --- | --- |
| approved consignment extract and supplied delivery evidence | consignment address-and-proof worksheet with record references | courier desk coordinator |
| Missing or contradictory fields | Exception and source-linked question | Named source owner |
| Approved next step | Reviewable coordination draft | Staff authorize external action |

## Worked example: three records, three outcomes

The following inputs and outputs are synthetic, not customer results. Read them as a test packet for this desk.

| Illustrative source row | Useful worked output |
| --- | --- |
| Delivery C-71: pickup label and recipient message specify different suite numbers. | Return the destination discrepancy before preparing delivery context. |
| Delivery C-72: proof image exists but lacks the consignment reference in the office extract. | Flag evidence matching for staff rather than assume it belongs to this delivery. |
| Delivery C-73: recipient requests rerouting while the original destination remains approved. | Prepare a change request and keep rerouting unconfirmed. |

**Correction check:** Check consignment and address identity before attaching proof. Administrative follow-through should not expose another recipient’s parcel details or authorize route changes and liability decisions.

## Complete first-run brief

> Prepare a consignment address-and-proof worksheet from approved consignment extract and supplied delivery evidence. Cover October 12–16, 2026; use America/Los_Angeles for date cutoffs. Include these source fields: consignment ID, pickup, destination, suite, proof reference, change owner. Trigger: Monday at 9 AM. Output: a source-linked Markdown draft in my private review thread, grouped by next action and owner. Reviewer: the courier desk coordinator. Flag missing fields or conflicting versions. Leave rerouting, recipient changes, liability, and operational safety decisions with staff. Do not send messages, change source records, or spend money. Result check: Confirm consignment/address identity and proof correspondence with the desk coordinator.

Replace the illustrative dates and source locations before running this task. Use an approved extract when a native connection and its exact actions have not been verified; the extract remains a snapshot, not live synchronization.

## First-week check and failure boundaries

Pilot one courier desk batch and inspect address and proof-link exceptions at the end-of-route review. Suite details can be lost in a short message. A proof image without correspondence needs identity review. Leave rerouting, recipient changes, liability, and operational safety decisions with staff. When an input changes, rerun the affected comparison and retain its source reference; do not overwrite the authoritative operational record with a draft.
