The Check Expiry Dates task list is designed to optimise date checking in store.
Colleagues can enter the closest expiry date for the products in the task list. This ensures only products with an expiry date that is tomorrow or sooner need to be reviewed each day. This drastically reduces the time spent date checking, and ensures products don't get missed for date checks.
How does the Task list appear?
This generates automatically each day, and contains all products that:
- Have an expiry date of tomorrow, today or in the past
- Do not have an expiry date entered yet
What do I do with the tasks in the list?
When a product is in the task list, it needs to be reviewed for its expiry date. Find the product, check the closest expiry date and enter the closest date into Pulse. If there are products expiring today/tomorrow, then you may want to take action such as discounting the products, or throwing in the bin.
I have entered a date in the future, now what?
The task for this product will not reappear until the day before the date entered.
How do products get added to the task list?
These are added automatically if a product is appearing in the actionable waste insight. If a product stops flagging as having high waste, it will no longer appear on the task list.
A colleague can also add products they want to monitor. These will stay on the task list until a user removes them.
How do I get started
We recommend on the first day, using the Pulse on mobile, you scan all of the products in the fridges or other areas you want to monitor.
These products will appear going forward in the task list, as soon as the expiry date is tomorrow.
Each day, the colleague only needs to check the products that are on the task list.
