What happens when a part hits the expire date set up on the lot? Does it go straight to DMR. Or do we have to scrap it manually? I can’t find anything on this… I know it may seem like a silly question, but don’t want to wait till tomorrow to see what happens. Thanks!

Hi Time, I’ve read somewhere else that MRP will take it out of inventory. That’s not true?

There is no logic built-in to Epicor that does anything about lot expiration dates. I’ve created more than one BPM to look at them and send notifications during a transaction, but more commonly I’d create a dashboard for the materials manager that showed any part/lot combinations expiring within 30/…

What should happen with expiration dates can vary greatly between companies. Many just need a dashboard, like @Ernie has done, to have visibility to part that are going to expire in the future. I’ve had aerospace clients who need an absolute stop for adhesives expiring 6 months or a year out due t…

Tim It ahs been more than a year but has Epicor decided to do anything with the expiration date other than it is a field? Is there any plan to have it actually do anything. IF the part is expired the least it can do is stop it from being issued.

I had to create a BPM that would throw an exception at material issue. Nothing out of the box that I’ve seen so far. I also created a dashboard to list all expired inventory for folks to take care of as needed.
