Batch and Expiry Date tracking with warranty monitoring
  • Track your inventory by batch to see the expiration date, then you can determine if any products are about to expire.
  • Identifying and selling these products before they get too close to their expiration date can help your business prevent selling poor-quality products to customers, which can be detrimental to your business in the future.
  • If the cost per batch varies significantly, managing costs by batch is better for the business.

Conclusion

Back then, there were many ways to track inventory for manufacturers and distributors. But with the development of the economy as well as the growth of the company itself, the old methods such as Cardex or spreadsheets are no longer suitable. Inventory tracking software and 3PLs are increasingly popular among small and medium-sized businesses based on their effectiveness in tracking and controlling the company’s operations accurately and quickly.

In short, for the last sip of tea, profit margin is the biggest matter. Objectively, inventory tracking software plays an important role in improving the bottom line as well as contributing to maintaining the front line of the business.
