FEFO picking, with batch and expiry on every stock line.

In a pharma warehouse, the batch that leaves first decides what expires on the shelf. Linari allocates stock by earliest expiry, keeps the batch number and expiry date on every stock line from receipt to dispatch, and records who moved what and when.

How a batch moves through Linari

  1. Receive. The receiver records the batch number and expiry date for each received line, and the stock line keeps them from then on.
  2. Hold or release. Stock that needs a decision gets a status such as quarantine. Orders are allocated only from stock in the status they ask for, so held stock stays out of picking until someone changes its status.
  3. Allocate by expiry. When an order is confirmed, Linari reserves stock by FEFO: the earliest expiry date goes first. Each warehouse can run FEFO, FIFO or LIFO.
  4. Pick and dispatch. Operators pick by scan on Android handhelds. Each pick stores the batch and the customer it went to, and every movement is logged with the user and the time.

What Linari keeps for every stock line

Batch and expiry

The batch number and expiry date stay on the stock line through put-away, transfers and picking, so every unit on a shelf can be told apart by batch.

Stock status

Quarantine, expired, damaged and other statuses keep units apart from pickable stock until their status is changed.

Serial numbers

Where a product needs it, serial numbers are captured at receiving and at shipping.

Audit trail

Picks, transfers, status changes and stock movements are stored with the user who made them and the time.

Questions pharma teams ask

Is Linari GDP certified?

No. GDP compliance belongs to your company and its processes, not to a software product. Linari gives your quality team the records an audit looks at: batch and expiry on every stock line, stock statuses, and a log of who moved what and when.

What happens in a recall?

Every pick stores the batch number and the customer it went to, and every stock movement is logged. That is the record a recall starts from: which customers received the batch, and where the remaining units are.

Do you support FIFO too?

Yes. Each warehouse runs FEFO, FIFO or LIFO, so a pharma warehouse and a general goods warehouse can work differently on the same system.

Does it work with our ERP?

Yes. We connect Linari to your ERP or accounting system, such as 1C, SAP Business One, ORIS or FINA, through its interface or by file exchange. Failed messages stay visible and can be sent again. In Georgia, shipments can also go to RS.ge as electronic waybills.
