By default, when an overage is scanned it will auto-populate the parcel type, weight, length, width, and height set in the Mobile Option Sets (Classic Operations App), Drivers, or in the Nextstop app. This can be a problem if drivers are not making sure that the parcel type is correct. In addition to requiring drivers to enter a parcel type, you can also require drivers to enter a parcel status code.

In Mobile Option Sets or Mobile Users, disable the "Overage Defaults" option. See Mobile Option Sets (Classic Operations App) or Drivers.
