2. How does HandiFox handle expiration date tracking?
HandiFox automatically monitors expiration dates for products tracked by lot or serial number. You can quickly spot when items approach expiration and write them off. This feature helps maintain product quality, comply with regulations, and prevent selling expired goods—a major advantage for industries like food, healthcare, and manufacturing.
3. Can I generate and scan serial or lot numbers in HandiFox?

4. How does lot control software improve traceability and reporting?
