Expiry management records the expiry or best-before date on every batch and uses it to drive picking order, alerts and clearance decisions. The goal is that nothing reaches its date sitting in your warehouse.

Early warning is the whole point. Stock flagged ninety days out can be discounted or redistributed; stock discovered on the day is a write-off.
