Shelf Life

Enter the expected shelf life for the item in days. The system will use this field to calculate the expiration dates for lots and serial numbers.

Whenever you create a new lot or serial number, the system will calculate the lot and serial number expiration date in the following way:

EX - ISF + CD

  • EX - Expiration date
  • ISF - Item's shelf life
  • CD - Create date
Note:  If a serial number has expired, it will not be accessed on generation. It can be manually selected, but a system message advises you that the serial number has expired.
