Get a daily alert for batches already expired or expiring within 90 days, so short-dated stock is moved, returned or written off while there are still options. Keep quarantined, damaged and expired stock out of every sale once it is moved to a hold, with disposal written as an adjustment carrying the quantity, reason and person. Record batch, expiry and supplier at receipt against the purchase order, so a recall names the batches that moved and where the remainder sits. Close each shift with cash, mobile money and card takings on one record and the variance attributed to the person on the drawer. Run blind counts on high-value lines, with the variance priced at cost before the adjustment posts.
