Pad printing. Aug 24 to Aug 28. ERP order records.
Each order's wait at pad printing next to how late it was
What it shows: The ERP shows each late order's promised date, the day it shipped and how long its parts waited at pad printing.
Why it proves the point: Each order waited at pad printing longer than it was late, so without that wait all six would have shipped on time.
