Fast WMS runs pharmaceutical warehouses on batch and serialisation control, expiry-driven FEFO enforced at the scan, quarantine and hold bins, and a complete audit trail from goods receipt to dispatch.
When expiry is not enforced at the scan, staff can pick a short-dated or expired batch — a serious compliance failure and a patient-safety risk.
Goods awaiting QC release sit next to good stock with only a paper tag. Without a locked quarantine bin, they can be picked before they are cleared.
When a batch is recalled, paper records cannot quickly show where it is and which customers received it — leaving the recall incomplete and undocumented.
An auditor asks who moved a batch, when, and from where. Manual registers rarely have a complete, tamper-evident answer.
Regulated stock moves through defined statuses, not vague locations. Fast WMS holds each pallet under a status and, where needed, a dedicated bin — so nothing is picked until it is cleared.
Fast WMS runs the full regulated lifecycle with batch, expiry and status attached to stock at every step — every movement scan-confirmed and written to the audit trail.
Received stock can be placed on hold or quarantine and routed to locked bins, where it is blocked from every pick list until QC clears it. A pallet can be flipped between hold, released, damage and reject without moving its quantity, and every change is written to the audit trail — so a recalled or failed batch is removed from available stock in one action.
For released stock, Fast WMS builds pick lists that allocate batches by expiry, nearest-expiry first, with expiry as a hard eligibility filter. A picker who scans a later-expiry or expired batch is rejected on the handheld, and expiry-bucket dashboards flag batches approaching their date so they can be managed before they cross it.
Every transaction in Fast WMS writes an audit record, and the pallet-to-bin-to-status history is append-only, so you can always show where a batch is now and everywhere it has been. Combined with serialised licence-plate numbers and an immutable stock ledger, this gives regulated pharma warehouses the complete, tamper-evident trail an audit or recall expects.
Batch or LPN, manufacturing date and expiry captured per pallet at GRN, and enforced through picking so nothing out-of-date can ship.
Every pallet carries a unique licence-plate number alongside its batch, and units are barcoded — the base for track-and-trace and serialisation.
Pick lists allocate the nearest-expiry batch first, with expiry as a hard filter and expired-batch scans rejected at the device.
Locked quarantine bins and hold, release and reject statuses keep stock awaiting QC or under recall out of every pick list.
An audit record on every transaction plus an append-only bin history and immutable stock ledger answer who moved what, when and where.
Dispatch produces GST challans and invoices carrying batch and expiry, and posts sales and purchase vouchers to Tally automatically.
