The Kit Lot Expiry module allows you to oversee expirable kit items, conduct regular audits to identify and address components that are approaching their expiration dates, and print new kit parent lot number labels on the go.

The expiration date of a kit lot is determined by its earliest expiring component. Each time an expiring component is replaced, the kit label’s expiration date must be updated accordingly. Navigate to the Kit Lot Expiry module to perform regular audits, ensuring that any components nearing their expiration dates are identified and addressed promptly.

The Kit Lot Expiry module is located in the Products tab and allows you to search for your kit lots in two modes:

  • Kit Parent SKU
