What is lot traceability?

Forward and backward lot traceability refers to an organization’s ability to track material lots as they are:

Achieving complete lot traceability was once only applicable to pharmaceutical, chemical, food and beverage, and other consumer packaged goods (CPG) industries. In recent years, lot tracking requirements have extended to aerospace, automotive, oil and gas, and other regulated industries. E21 ERP has been explicitly designed to meet the lot traceability requirements of manufacturing and distribution organizations in all these sectors.

How can E21 ERP help with lot traceability?

The E21 ERP system provides a fully integrated lot and food traceability software solution. From receipt into inventory through shipment to customers, E21 delivers the lot tracking software features needed to meet industry regulatory requirements. In addition, E21’s lot traceability solution includes integrated mass balance reporting coupled with a fully integrated product recall management system to assist in the event of mock or actual product recalls.

With these solutions, a single barcode scan captures all the necessary inventory data, including the product code, lot, expiration date, weight, and more.

Supplier approvals, an online portal, and document management

To streamline interactions with suppliers, E21 ERP delivers more than traditional lot and food traceability software. The system features a robust vendor approval software program that helps organizations meet Safe Food Quality (SQF) Program and other regulatory body requirements. It also features an integrated ERP vendor portal. Manufacturers and distributors can utilize the vendor portal in conjunction with the E21 ERP document management solution to ensure up-to-date supplier documentation is always on file and that suppliers remain in compliance.

Meet customer-specific lot tracking and shelf life requirements

E21’s lot tracking software allows organizations to support customer-specific inventory allocation rules and print formats. For example, E21 ERP enables organizations to specify the following:

The E21 ERP system provides a holistic solution for ensuring all customer-required lot information is accounted for before the lot is ever shipped to the customer.
