Lot-sensitive goods

Shelf-life decisions depend on an actual lot, its location, available quantity and planned customer demand. ERP for FMCG records lot identity on inventory positions and goods receipt lines, while expiry allocations connect an order line to a lot number, expiry date, quantity and warehouse context. Warehouse staff can compare the intended allocation with the physical position before picking.

How FMCG ERP is set up for you

Arrival

Record lot details and separate accepted from rejected or pending receipt quantity.

Availability

Review the current location, custody state, reserved quantity and usable remainder for each lot.

Allocation

Tie an order line to a proposed lot and expiry date, then compare it with actual stock and dispatch timing.

Physical outcome

Let the pick and delivery records show the quantity actually moved and accepted.

Shelf-life decisions depend on an actual lot, its location, available quantity and planned customer demand. ERP for FMCG records lot identity on inventory positions and goods receipt lines, while expiry allocations connect an order line to a lot number, expiry date, quantity and warehouse context. Warehouse staff can compare the intended allocation with the physical position before picking.

Choose one product with multiple lots and one warehouse with defined locations. Receive a partial supplier delivery and verify that only the accepted amount becomes stock. Reserve an approved dealer order line, record an expiry allocation and check whether the chosen lot remains available. A held or already reserved portion should prompt a different physical plan.

Rehearse a short pick and a refused delivery. The original allocation can remain as planning evidence, while the actual pick, shipment and return records explain what moved. Agree who maintains lot dates, who reviews allocation choices and how a supplier or warehouse correction is recorded without rewriting receipt history. Compare the chosen lot again at pick time, since another reservation or hold may have changed its usable balance.
