What is happening in the supply chain

Österreichische Post processes domestic and incoming European parcels (22-digit `10…` barcodes and S10 codes) through regional Verteilzentren (VZ), with Paketlogistikzentrum Wien-Inzersdorf (1005 Wien) handling Vienna and international customs-cleared items. When the high-speed sorter reads your barcode and routes the parcel to the delivery base chute for your postal code, Austrian Post logs 'Sendung in Verteilung' ('Item in distribution').
