Which lot picking strategies are supported?

Lot picking methods such as LIFO, FIFO and FEFO can be selected by item, and you can use multiple picking strategies for orders, shipments and production.

Can we track stock by batch numbers?

Yes. Several units of stock items can be tracked by batch number through assembly, from inventory receipts to specific customer shipments.

Does it support quarantine and expiry dates?

Yes. Quarantine support and traceability based on expiration date are included, so expired or suspect stock can be isolated and traced.

Can we see which customers received a product?

Yes. You can determine the number of customers who received a product, and identify planned shipments and the specific lots consumed.

Can we trace the vendor of a raw material?

Yes. You can trace the vendor from whom an item or raw material was purchased, and locate the production orders that used it.

How fast can we respond to a recall?

With bi-directional lot tracking you can see affected lots and the customers who received them from one system, instead of searching across spreadsheets and documents.

Does it cover raw materials through to finished goods?

Yes. It traces lots consumed in a product's assembly process, so you can follow raw material from receipt through production to the sale of the end item.

How does it help find the source of a defect?

By tracing the specific lots consumed in a finished product, you can locate the source of the defect and every other product that used the same lot.

Does it help with regulatory compliance?

It gives the capability to respond immediately to a hazard or defect, down to the core level, which supports compliance with lot traceability standards.

Can it protect our brand?

Proactive management of product safety, plus fast and precise recalls, helps protect consumer trust in your brand.

How does an implementation start?

We review your current inventory, production, purchasing and sales processes, then configure lot traceability for the items and workflows that matter most.

How long does implementation take?

Overview

Gain efficient traceability in inventory, production, purchasing and sales

Lot traceability, also known as lot control or manufacturing traceability, means a system which has the comprehensive functionality to track problems and provide full visibility of the exact make-up of consumer goods in real time throughout the manufacturing process. Traceability can be challenging, especially because problems can occur at any point in regulated industries.

Broken or slow procedures prove particularly costly for suppliers, which is why businesses are now turning to full-fledged ERP solutions like lot traceability software to manage products, product data, quality improvement, returns and customer complaints.

Lot traceability is largely in demand by the highly regulated industries that deal in making or distributing safety or health products. Compliance with lot traceability standards means a business has the capability to respond immediately to any hazard or defect, down to the very basic and core level.

Today, lot traceability software is enabling businesses to gain a strong foothold in their relevant industries, offering them the much needed efficiency and synergy it requires in the manufacturing processes.
