Tyre Manufacture Week and Serial Records
Every tyre carries a code on its sidewall that gives the week and year it was made. This module records that code and the serial when stock is received, and brings both back on the invoice.
What is recorded at receipt
The store notes the manufacture week and year printed on each tyre as it comes in against a purchase, reading it from the sidewall. Where the maker prints a serial or batch number, that is entered too. Tyres of the same size can then be told apart by age. That is the point.
Where the record is used
Matching sets
A set of four fitted on one car looks better and wears more evenly when the tyres are close in age. Because each tyre is recorded, the counter can pick four from the same batch where the shop holds them.
What this module does not do
- It does not read the sidewall code by camera. The store types it in at receipt.
- It does not decide how old a tyre may be before it is sold. The owner sets that.
- It does not judge condition. Cracks, storage damage and rubber hardening are checked by a person.
Frequently asked questions
Does every tyre need its code typed in?
Yes, if the shop wants age tracked. Many shops enter it for car and commercial tyres first and add two-wheeler stock later.
Can a barcode or label help here?
Yes. A label printed at receipt can carry the size and week, and scanning it at billing saves typing. The printer is confirmed during scoping.
Where does the maker’s serial appear?
It sits on the tyre’s stock record and prints on the invoice. A warranty claim reads it from there.
Can older tyres be priced down?
The owner can mark a price for a tyre past a chosen age. What discount is fair is the owner’s call, and the system only holds the figure.
