Worksheet

Near expiry review sheet

A weekly page lists every lot inside its alert window, sorted by days left and grouped by product so the stores manager reads it in a minute. Columns hold product, lot, expiry date, quantity, rack, days left, the decision (promote, redirect, rework or destroy), the owner and the outcome once acted on. A lower block summarises returned cartons by customer, reason and final handling, so a distributor who keeps returning short dated cases shows up at once.
