Fullstack dock scan wait is not ShipMonk warehouse scan wait
After Fullstack prints a label, ask how long until the carrier's first scan. First-scan hour − label hour is lag hours. Type labels for the export size.
Pair: Label-to-first-scan lag on Stock. ShipMonk twin: warehouse scan wait. Pick twin: pick-to-ship.
What you type
Label hour — Hour index when Fullstack created the shipping label in the 3PL export.
First-scan hour — Hour index of the carrier's first scan on that Fullstack cohort.
Labels — Labels in that Fullstack export.
Lag hours = first-scan hour − label hour. Long lag hours usually mean the Fullstack dock handoff to the carrier is stuck — chase that dock lane; never invent a lag chip.
What not to do
Do not invent lag hours. Do not paste ShipMonk warehouse or ShipBob clocks into Fullstack fields. Do not fold pick-to-ship or kit-build fails into the label hour. Do not average every building when one dock owns the delay.

- Is this Fullstack pick-to-ship lag?
- Pick finish vs carrier scan. [Pick-to-ship lag](/manuals/fullstack-pick-to-ship-lag) is ship hour − pick hour. This page is first-scan hour − label hour.
- What lag hours should I invent?
- None. Pull label hour, first-scan hour, and labels from the same Fullstack 3PL export.
