  Check VGM Cut-off Date/Time: Review the cut-off date/time settings in the system. Ensure that the VGM data is submitted before this deadline. If necessary, adjust the cut-off time in the configuration settings if it is feasible and appropriate.
  Complete VGM Data: Verify that all required VGM data for the item is complete. This includes checking for any missing fields or incorrect entries. Ensure that the VGM is calculated correctly and all necessary documentation is provided.

  User Training: Ensure that users involved in the logistics and shipping processes are trained on the importance of VGM data and the implications of missing or incomplete information.
