FIFO Ingredient Tracking
Automatically assign raw material lots on a first-in-first-out basis during production.
When you run a production plan, Recipe Cost Calculator can automatically assign raw material lot numbers using FIFO (first-in, first-out) logic. The oldest inventory gets used first, which is both good practice for food safety and required by many quality systems.
You don't have to manually pick which lots to use — the system handles it based on receipt dates. This keeps your traceability records accurate without adding work to your production process.
Why this matters
FIFO without the manual tracking.
Manually tracking which lot to use next is error-prone and time-consuming. Automated FIFO assignment gets it right every time and keeps your traceability chain intact for audits and compliance.
