01

Traceability without friction

Built for teams that need precision, speed, and clean records — for materials and products alike.
01

Lot + serial tracking for materials and products

Track raw material receipts and finished goods by lot and serial from day one. Every unit — whether it's an input or a finished product — carries a complete, connected history.
02

Guided lot creation with smart defaults

Auto-generate lot numbers for materials and products with prefixes, date stamps, and consistent naming rules. No manual formatting, no drift over time.
03

Expiry, FEFO, and status control

Set production and expiry dates on materials and finished goods. Assign FEFO, FIFO, or LIFO strategy per product — fulfillment automatically picks the right lot every time.
04

End-to-end traceability

Search any lot or serial and instantly see quantity, locations, linked production orders, and shipments. Forward and backward traceability in seconds.
02

How teams run it day to day

A practical flow from receiving materials to shipping finished units.
  1. 01

    Receive materials

    Record incoming lots and serials from suppliers with production and expiration dates.

  2. 02

    Link to production

    Assign tracked materials to work orders so every finished unit inherits a traceable history.

  3. 03

    Assign lots to finished goods

    Create lots and serials for products as they come out of production, with expiry dates and fulfillment strategy set from the start.

  4. 04

    Trace in seconds

    Run forward or backward traceability for audits, quality incidents, and recalls — across materials and products.

03

From raw material to shipped product

Lot and serial tracking covers both incoming materials and finished goods — built in from the start, not bolted on.
