       1. If you cannot fit all of the items in their location, follow the guide to Placing items into Overstock
    2. Job Orders should be put directly on the job shelf unless the superintendent will need it on errands or sooner than that, be sure to notify the superintendent. Follow the Placing items into Jobs in Progress guide to correctly put the items where they belong then notify the superintendent.
