Use Case · Exception Handling

Marked delivered. Not received by the recipient.

A delivery scan does not resolve the enquiry by itself. PROWERB collects available delivery information, coordinates with the parties involved and records the next approved step.

How the steps connect

  1. 1

    Identify the shipment

    Connect the order, recipient and shipment reference.

  2. 2

    Investigate delivery

    Check drop-off location, receipt and available carrier information.

  3. 3

    Agree a resolution

    Communicate the result and submit further action or replacement for approval.

Starting point

Delivery scan recorded, parcel missing at the recipient.

The example starts with conflicting carrier status and recipient information. Order, address, scan and any delivery location are brought together for investigation. The responsible owner uses that evidence to decide the next step.

Solution

Resolution happens where the shipment came from — not in the sender's marketing department.

Shipping, inventory management and recipient correspondence sit in the same system at PROWERB. So a non-receipt report doesn't start from zero: shipment history, proof of delivery and inventory booking are directly accessible, and track-and-trace runs through the Operations Cockpit.

PROWERB handles correspondence with the carrier, courier and recipient on behalf of the client brand. That's how PROWERB has worked since 2022 for a major travel operator: the complete promotional-products logistics chain, from order intake to exception handling for transport deviations, non-receipt and cancellations — routine business, week after week.

Process

Five steps from the report to the booking.

At PROWERB, non-receipt isn't a special case — it's a defined process with a clear end.

  1. 01

    01 · Report

    The recipient reports non-receipt — by email, through the shop, or via the client. The case is opened as an exception and linked to the shipment.

  2. 02

    02 · Proof check

    Proof of delivery, scan history and delivery address are checked against the report: where was it scanned, who signed for it, what drop-off location is documented?

  3. 03

    03 · Investigation

    If the proof check doesn't locate the package, an investigation request goes to the carrier or forwarder — with a deadline and follow-up, not as an open question.

  4. 04

    04 · Response

    The recipient receives an answer under the brand's name: found, in transit, or replacement. No forwarding loops, no sender ping-pong.

  5. 05

    05 · Closure

    Replacement, credit or stock correction follow the agreed decision and authority. Response, approval and booking are documented; a non-delivery report alone does not trigger replacement.

Result

Closed with a reply, a decision and the correct booking.

Every case ends with three things: an answer for the recipient, a correct inventory balance in the system, a documented case in reporting. The client sees the exception in the Operations Cockpit — as a status line, not as a task on their own desk. For the travel operator in this example, this resolution has been part of ongoing operations for four years.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions about non-receipt exception handling.

Who resolves non-receipt cases — our team or PROWERB?

PROWERB handles the agreed investigation and correspondence. Replacement or credit decisions are made by the role named in the engagement within its authority.

Does the recipient notice that a service provider is handling the resolution?

No. PROWERB handles correspondence with the carrier, courier and recipient under your brand's name — without forwarding loops or sender ping-pong.

Why can PROWERB resolve cases faster than our own team?

Because shipping, inventory management and recipient correspondence sit in the same system. A non-receipt report doesn't start from zero: shipment history, proof of delivery and inventory booking are directly accessible, and track-and-trace runs through the Operations Cockpit.

What happens if the package is ultimately unrecoverable?

After investigation, the appropriate resolution is documented: replacement shipment, credit or inventory correction. Approval follows the agreed process. The recipient receives a reply, and the decision and booking remain traceable in the system.

Do we, as the client, keep an overview of open cases?

Yes. You see every exception in the Operations Cockpit — as a status line, not as a task on your own desk. All cases remain fully documented and analyzable by route, carrier and pattern; for a major travel operator, this resolution has been part of the weekly ongoing operations since 2022.
