APPLICATION GUIDE

FIFO and FEFO: guide the right material into use

Receipt sequence and usable life both influence the next material issue. Define the rule and capture the inputs that make it usable.

Choose the intended sequence

FIFO uses receipt order. FEFO uses the earliest eligible expiry. A gravity rack can support physical flow, while digital guidance uses captured batch and location data.

Make the inputs dependable

Identify the lot or batch, receipt date, expiry where relevant and physical location. Establish who updates these records and confirms the issue.

Validate actual picking

Location guidance, barcode identity and acknowledgement serve different purposes. Select the checks needed to verify the agreed issue rule.
