Best Practices for Quality Contributions
Be Accurate & Honest
Report both positives and flaws. Objective data is more helpful than overly optimistic praise.
Stay Organized
Follow the existing spreadsheet format. Place information in the correct columns to maintain consistency.
Respect Privacy
Blur or crop out any personal information (address labels, order numbers) from your QC photos before uploading.
Update If Needed
If you receive the item and findings change, consider adding a follow-up comment to your entry.
