Xentral offers you a variety of possibilities to manage and track batches, best before dates and serial numbers.
In the following, you’ll find a general overview of these possibilities as well as useful links to more in-depth information and step-by-step-instructions.
-
If batches, best before dates or serial numbers should be maintained for a product, you need to carry out specific settings in the product master data beforehand. For serial numbers, you can also decide if serial numbers should be registered, registered and stocked or created during your own production process.
-
Whenever products with best before dates, batches or serial numbers are stocked or retrieved from your stock, you are prompted to enter this information. You can do so using a scanner for a swift process and no error potential. However, manual entry is always possible as an alternative.
-
During the picking and shipping process as well as during packing in the dispatch center, the products can be scanned once more. This way, you can double-check your products.
-
Xentral offers you a batch history that allows you to check and trace your products. We have based this functionality on the specifications of the IFS Food Standard certification.
-
Within a production, you can retrieve batches and serial numbers of the products required for production, but also assign this data for the end products resulting from your production.
