What it is for
In a shop or warehouse, goods spoil if the expiry date is not noticed in time. The template tracks batches, counts the days left until expiry, sets a status (“Soon”, “Critical”, “Expired”) and suggests a discount for markdown.
What is inside
- “Settings”: how many days before expiry count as “Soon” and “Critical” (14 and 3 by default) and the discount for each status.
- “Batches”: product, category, batch, quantity, purchase and selling price, expiry date; days left, status, discount and discounted price are calculated automatically.
- “Act today”: an automatic list of batches that should be marked down or written off, with the discount and the amount at risk.
- “Summary”: how many batches are expired, critical and soon to expire, the value of goods at risk, a chart.
Who it suits
Shop owners, warehouse managers, and sellers of food, cafés and pharmacies who watch expiry dates.
