You need to check a lot of parameters.

Biscuits texture,

Filling fat amount,

Filling fat type,

Filling fat viscosity,

Packaging material,

etc.

yes you need to consider all the above parameters , especially barrier properties of packaging material like WVTR/MVTR , and OTR with respect to different humidity conditions and temperature ( need to consider locations whare product is going to sale to know extreme lower and higher conditions ).
According to that you can modify packaging material to get better results.

Thanks for suggestions, we are considering above points you suggested, but now focusing on chocolate quality
will cooling of biscuit after off line filling (after baking) help set chocolate?
