Lot tracking that supports FEFO without turning traceability into a side system.

WarePulse is for warehouses managing expiry, recall risk, or customer traceability requirements across multiple handling steps.

Most warehouses start tracking lots on a spreadsheet and lose precision as volume grows. The gap between where lot data is captured and where it is consumed — allocation, picking, shipping, audit — creates risk that is invisible until a recall, a client audit, or an expired-product slip forces recon. Here is how lot tracking works as part of warehouse execution rather than alongside it.

Frequently asked questions

Do all products need lot tracking?+
No. Warehouses often apply lot tracking selectively — typically for expiry-sensitive, regulated, or high-value SKUs. The system supports mixed scenarios where some products are lot-tracked and others are not.
Is lot tracking only about compliance?+
No. It also reduces operational confusion, supports cleaner FEFO allocation, and makes customer communication faster when inventory risk shows up. The compliance benefit is a byproduct of better execution.
How does lot tracking affect pick speed?+
Properly implemented lot tracking can improve pick speed because the system directs operators to the correct lot. Without it, operators waste time searching or guessing which pallet to pick from.
Can we retroactively add lot data to inventory already in the warehouse?+
Yes. WarePulse supports lot assignment during cycle counts or inventory adjustments. Teams often use a one-time lot sweep to bring existing stock into the lot-tracking framework.
How fast can we respond to a recall with lot-tracked inventory?+
With complete lot movement history, recall identification takes minutes instead of hours. The system traces every unit of an affected lot from receipt through ship, including which clients received the product.

Turn the workflow costing you the most time into a measurable win.

The strongest traceability programs are part of receiving, storage, and picking execution — not an after-the-fact reporting exercise. Start with the lot-controlled product line that carries the most risk.
