What to record for a pinhole on a textured-paper wine label

For a pinhole on a textured-paper wine label, at least record the material batch, the corona, and the colour unit. Leave any one of these out and the next shift cannot tell whether to change a part. The solid is full of pin-size white spots.

The note is for the next shift

Writing only "there is a pinhole" is useless. The solid is full of pin-size white spots. Also write where it sits. If it has already affected the wine name or the minimum legal text, the note must say whether you stopped or let it go.

What to write down

Item What it is for If you leave it out
Record the material batch, the corona, and the colour unit. Match it to a roller, a blade, or the stock Next time you guess from zero
Metre count or sheet number Find this spot again The complaint will not line up
Whether it hit the wine name or the minimum legal text Pass or stop You only keep a pretty picture

Hand this to the next shift

  1. Record the material batch, the corona, and the colour unit.
  2. Write whether it landed on the wine name or the minimum legal text.
  3. Use the name from the name list. Do not invent another word.
