Tracking batch expiry dates

Step by Step

1. Open Inventory → Expiry Dashboard.
2. Filter by tier, category or supplier.
3. For critical batches: one-click write-off or return-to-supplier.
4. Alerts fire automatically at 30/60/90 days before expiry.

Act at Three Points

• 90 days: move stock to a faster-selling branch or plan a scheme.
• 60 days: return to the distributor while their return window is open.
• 30 days: final returns, or write off with a reason.

Make It a Habit

Check the expiry report once a week, sorted by value. Ten minutes on a fixed day keeps write-offs small. FEFO billing — selling the earliest expiry first — means old batches rarely reach the 30-day list in the first place.

FAQ

• Can I see the value of stock at risk? Yes. The expiry report shows the rupee value of expired and expiring batches.
• Can I check expiry on my phone? Yes, on Pro and above: expiry alerts are part of the Mobile Reports Hub.
