Know exactly which lot you have, where it’s stored, and where it’s been used.
Lot Tracking Built Into Everyday Inventory Work
Wasp Inventory tracks lot numbers as part of normal inventory work, not as a separate process. Capture the lot or date code when inventory is received, carry it through putaway, picking, and shipping, and keep the full history in one system. Every scan updates the record, so the lot detail is there when you need to answer a recall or an audit question. Lot, date code, and serial number tracking are included in every version of Wasp Inventory. For production workflows, see manufacturing process management.

Customer Success – All About Kids Pediatrics
All About Kids Pediatrics needed a faster, more reliable way to document vaccine information, including lot numbers, expiration dates, and manufacturer details, while meeting strict safety and compliance requirements. Before implementing barcode technology, tracking this information manually could take up to 30 minutes per vaccination. By adopting Wasp barcode scanners, nurses now capture the vaccine lot number and required documentation in just three quick scans. The result reduced documentation time from 30 minutes to about 10 seconds, improved accuracy, and allowed staff to care for patients more efficiently.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is lot tracking software?
What is lot tracking software?
Lot tracking software records which lot or batch each item came from, where it is stored, and where it has been used. Instead of looking through spreadsheets or paper records, you scan a barcode and the system keeps the lot number, date code, and location together. That record is what lets you answer a recall or an audit question quickly.
How does Wasp Inventory handle lot tracking and date code management?
How does Wasp Inventory handle lot tracking and date code management?
Wasp Inventory tracks each item by lot number, date code, or serial number as it moves through receiving, storage, and shipping. Every scan updates the record, so you have a full history of which lot went where. Lot and date code tracking is included in every version of Wasp Inventory.
What inventory software handles lot recalls and date code compliance?
What inventory software handles lot recalls and date code compliance?
During a recall, you need to identify every affected item fast. Wasp Inventory lets you search by lot number or date code and see exactly which items are affected and where they are stored, so you can isolate them instead of pulling entire product lines. The same records support compliance reporting and audits.
How do regulated industries like food, pharma, and medical track lots and expiration dates?
How do regulated industries like food, pharma, and medical track lots and expiration dates?
Record the lot number and the expiration or date code when inventory is received, then keep them on the item record with its storage location as it moves. Wasp Inventory does this at the scan, so teams can see what is approaching expiration, rotate stock before it becomes waste, and pull a lot-level history when a traceability rule such as FSMA 204 or an auditor asks for it. This matters most for food, beverage, pharmaceutical, and medical supplies.
Can you trace a lot number back to a supplier or forward to finished goods?
Can you trace a lot number back to a supplier or forward to finished goods?
Yes. Because the lot number travels with the item through receiving, storage, and shipping, you can trace a lot backward to the supplier it came from and forward to where it was used or shipped. That two-way trace is what makes a recall or a quality investigation manageable.
Is lot tracking included in Wasp Inventory, or does it cost extra?
Is lot tracking included in Wasp Inventory, or does it cost extra?
Yes, it is included. Lot and date code tracking, along with serial number tracking, is part of every version of Wasp Inventory. There is no separate traceability module or add-on required to track inventory by lot.
