Expiry Management

Near-expiry stock reaching consumers is a safety issue, a compliance issue, and a brand issue. Ratifye prevents all three.

Every GS1 barcode carries encoded expiry data. Ratifye reads it at every scan point — warehouse pick, distributor receipt, retail delivery — and enforces FEFO rules automatically. Near-expiry alerts fire before stock reaches the danger zone.

FEFO enforced. Alerts configurable. Recall-ready. Works on barcodes you already print.

Expiry management features

From manufacturing date to shelf life — every unit tracked.

F

FEFO enforcement at the pick face

Earliest-expiry-first enforced automatically at every warehouse pick. Wrong-batch picks flagged in real time. Your pickers don't need to check — the scanner does it for them.

A

Configurable near-expiry alerts

Set alert windows at 90, 60, 30 days — or any combination. Near-expiry stock is routed to promotional channels, returned to DC, or marked for disposal before it creates a consumer complaint or regulator inquiry.

V

Full expiry visibility across your network

See the expiry profile of your entire stock-in-trade — at DC, distributor, and retail level. Identify ageing stock in slow-moving channels before it expires. Prioritise sell-through with targeted interventions.

R

Rapid recall on expiry-related batches

When a recall is triggered by expiry or manufacturing defect, filter affected serials by batch, lot, or date range in 60 seconds. Every affected unit's current location surfaces with chain-of-custody history from manufacture to present.

Expiry intelligence across your entire supply chain — in one view.

The Ratifye analytics trends screen shows your scan activity over any time window, broken down by outcome — authentic, near-expiry, expired, diverted. Your compliance team sees exactly what's moving where and whether it should still be on shelf.

Expiry compliance dashboard

The best expiry management is proactive. Ratifye makes every expiry event visible before it becomes a problem.
