Run production as tracked batches: consume exact approved lots, record in-process checks, capture yield, and package into finished lots - with guardrails that block held, expired, or short lots.
A batch consumes specific approved material lots, so the finished lots inherit an exact, provable ingredient chain.
Lots on hold, expired, or short of available quantity are blocked from a batch automatically - mistakes are caught before the run.
Record in-process checks and the completed yield on the batch record, so the numbers behind each run are permanent.
Turn a completed batch into finished lots with lot numbers and best-by dates, ready to release, label, and ship.
Log each incoming supplier lot with quantity, expiration, and certificate - the lot lands in quarantine until it's inspected and approved.
Start a batch and consume exact approved lots. LotThread blocks anything on hold, expired, or short before it enters production.
Turn a completed batch into finished lots with lot numbers and best-by dates, and generate a label in one click.
Track remaining quantity, location, expiry, and hold/release state so you always know what's clear to ship.
Record customer shipments with the same guardrails, closing the chain from supplier lot to the customer who received it.
The consumption is blocked. LotThread won't let a batch consume a lot that's on hold, expired, or short of available quantity, so the guardrail catches the problem before the run instead of after.
Yes. Checks are recorded on the batch before it completes, and the captured yield and checks become part of the permanent, timestamped batch record.
No. LotThread is the traceability layer that sits alongside QuickBooks, Shopify, and the tools you already use - it connects your materials, batches, and shipments into one record without replacing your books or storefront.
Most producers trace a first product in an afternoon. You set up one product, one supplier, and one production batch, and the genealogy and recall scoping compute from there - no manufacturing ERP rollout required.
Yes. Map your columns once and bulk-import materials, suppliers, and existing lots from a spreadsheet or supplier file, so you start with your real history instead of a blank system.
Replace scattered spreadsheets and production records with one connected history from receiving through shipment.
Begin with one product, one supplier, and one production batch.
