Please find the vessel schedule below for your reference. The factory was compensated with one piece of AR2083 and shipped with this shipment. They had packed it in a separate box and mark the PO no. *** on the box for your easy identify.

 

The beneficiary information shown in the L/C is request match with our PO. Would you please correct our PO? This is under the ISO requirement.

Hi. I don't particularly know what type of writing situations requires the use of a past perfect tense but I think the corrections you made is for sort of a short business letter. Could we use the past perfect tenses for the part "They had packed it a separate box and (had) marked the PO no. *** on the box for your easy identification."?

Also, when do we usually use the phrases "information in" and "information on"? Thank you.

Past perfect is not required here-- the order of events is obvious.  Compare:  I wrote a letter and sent it to my sister; she read it and passed it on to my mother; my mother replied the next day.  No past perfect required.

Information on = information about (e.g. a tipic)
information in = information contained in (e.g. a brochure, a file)
