Eagle Labs label scrap is not packaging scrap
Divide label scrap units by units labeled in one Eagle Labs label cut. That ratio is EL label-scrap %.
Pair: Label scrap rate on Stock. Pack twin: packaging scrap. Reject twin: label-reject.
What you type
Label scrap units — Eagle Labs labeled units scrapped at the labeler in the cut.
Units labeled — Units that ran the labeler on that same Eagle Labs label cut.
EL label-scrap % = label scrap ÷ units labeled × 100. Fat EL label-scrap % usually means applicator / adhesive / artwork drift — chase that station. Never invent an EL label-scrap chip.
What not to do
Do not invent EL label-scrap %. Do not paste packaging-scrap or label-reject files into these fields. Do not treat claim-fail lots as label scrap. Do not blend SKUs when one formula owns the hole.
