Our delivered UR5e arm crate is accounted for. The controller and teach pendant cable are not, although the seller's complete-package list includes them. Every answer about their separate shipment comes with another photograph of the arm crate. I need somebody to account for the second box, not admire the first.

Ask dispatch for the second box's actual packing record and movement reference against those missing contents. A complete order list may describe what should be packed rather than what was handed to a carrier.

List has boxes one and two. Collection sheet and photographs identify only one. I've asked whether box two physically exists, with the controller and cable inside it.

Is that box list a packing plan or a completed packing check?

Packing plan. Dispatch now says box two is waiting for the cable. So the separate shipment was a planned one, despite three replies saying it had happened.

Our kit had an impressively complete packing plan too; the missing item was still on a supplier order, and getting someone to say that plainly finally let us plan the workshop time.

Imran, did you take the available bits first or wait for the kit?

Waited for that kit, Lin, because the available pieces had no separate use for our exercise; another workshop might have chosen differently, but two deliveries would only have given us two receiving jobs.

Technical contact confirms our controller is available. The cable is the outstanding item. I've asked them to identify its full assembly reference and actual supply position before offering another box-two collection date.

Keep the confirmed package's cable reference in that question. Available cable is not a useful answer unless it is the assembly your installer expects with this controller and pendant.

Sent the confirmed reference and the installer's component list. Sales replied with a cable picture but no stock or packing confirmation. I have asked dispatch, not sales, to answer that part.

Does the photograph actually show its marked reference?

No, catalogue picture. Nothing on it identifies a physical cable set aside for our order.

Then dispatch still needs to identify the actual assembly. Keep that picture out of the receiving pack unless it is clearly marked as a catalogue illustration; your receiver should not mistake it for checked contents.

Warehouse found a cable, but its marked reference differs from the confirmed set. Installer will not accept it without an actual compatibility comparison. I have asked for the ordered cable instead; still no complete box.

Would sending the controller alone help you, Anna, or just split the same unfinished job again?

No useful separate work for us. Installer and purchasing prefer the complete matched package, with the replacement packing check tied to both items. We haven't authorised a cable substitution or another partial dispatch.

Then tell them exactly that, because warehouse may otherwise think moving the controller is the progress everyone wants and leave you chasing the smaller box afterwards.

Have they located the ordered cable yet?

Dispatch says it can obtain the correct reference, but hasn't shown it packed. The agreed instruction is both items together after the contents check. No workshop arrival date from that promise.

Correct cable now photographed with its marking and the controller. Installer confirmed the listed combination, and dispatch completed the new contents sheet. They propose collection under a new reference; collector acceptance is still outstanding.
