Narrative:
As a result of a shift change this flight was on my coworkers desk; but I got the call at my desk. The ramp lead call requesting help finalizing his dstg (departure staging guide). There were two issues preventing him from finalizing first there was an additional hazmat quickpak added to the flight that was loaded up front. After verifying the item was on board I helped him pit the item; then I noticed the aft compartment the ramp lead had planned dry ice freight with mail and no bags. I then asked the ramp lead if the freight showing in pit 4 was actually loaded he said yes and that it was secured with the mail. I told him he would not be able to final without the required 15 bags. He was showing 15 bags in pit 1 so I then advised him to move the 15 bags from pit 1 to pit 4. I also sent the captain a ACARS because the flight was showing brake released.
