Gestan allows you to manage the manufacturing batch numbers or serial numbers of your products.
For each product concerned, it is possible to record the characteristics of the manufacturing batches, possibly with tracking of the numbers. The batch or serial number may be recorded on any invoice or BL.
The management of serial numbers requires the attention of the operator: in fact, if the program will check that the serial number is within the ranges defined for the lot, it will not check if this or that n ° serial has already been used on an invoice or a BL.

There are two types of expiry dates: a minimum durability date (DDM or best before ) for products that can be kept longer and a use-by date (**DLC ** or consume until ) for products that are quickly perishable.
The DDM on a food product does not have the same imperative nature as the use-by date.

NB units is the number of units produced for the batch.
