Short-dated stock dies in the cold room
When picking follows arrival order instead of expiry, the soonest-to-expire pallet sits behind older stock and times out in a freezer aisle. FEFO has to be enforced at the pick face across every zone, not eyeballed on a carton by whoever reaches it first.
Stock spread across chilled, frozen and ambient zones
The same SKU can live in a freezer, a chiller and a dry rack with different batches and dates in each. Without zone-aware, batch-and-expiry-level visibility you cannot tell whether you can fill an order at the right shelf life, or which lot is closest to its use-by.
A recall or temperature excursion means a half-day of cross-referencing
When a batch is implicated, or product breaches a temperature limit on receipt, you need to isolate every affected lot and everyone who received it fast. If that trace lives in spreadsheets and paper batch sheets, you are reconstructing it under pressure instead of running it as a query.
Inspect the product interface alongside the workflow. Confirm your own records and operating requirements during a review.
Modules and responsibilities
What each module contributes.
Keep the parts you need. These recommendations do not create a separate package or change the catalogue price.
| Module | Job it performs | Delivery status | Monthly price |
|---|---|---|---|
| Inventory Management | Track stock across bins and sites. | Catalogue module | A$399 |
| Receiving & inbound | Check deliveries and put stock away. | Catalogue module | A$299 |
| Shipping & outbound | Pack, label and dispatch orders. | Catalogue module | A$299 |
| Quality Control | Inspect goods and manage quality holds. | Built on rollout | A$399 |
| Exceptions Management | Find and resolve operational issues. | Built on rollout | A$299 |
| Dashboards & Reporting | See live performance and build reports. | Catalogue module | A$399 |
A$2,094 / month module subtotal
Sum of the suggested module licences. User allowances, additional seats, connectors and rollout requirements must be considered separately. Existing starter-pack pricing may suit a different combination.
Check packages and configure pricingMost cold-chain operators start with Inventory Management, Receiving & inbound and Shipping & outbound for zone-aware FEFO, then add Quality Control and Exceptions Management for quarantine, temperature-excursion holds and recall tracing, with Dashboards & Reporting for shelf-life and 3PL billing visibility.
Before you decide
Requirements to confirm.
- Temperature telemetry, FEFO enforcement and cold-chain reporting require verification against your specific workflow. Module availability alone does not establish these controls.
- Confirm the responsibilities of your sensors, warehouse processes and software before rollout.
Questions about this workflow.
Does OpsUI monitor warehouse and cold-room temperatures?
Bring your identification, handling and assurance requirements to the workflow review. We need to confirm the exact records, controls and reports with representative data before treating this as a fit.

Can OpsUI support a perishables recall under FSANZ rules?

Does OpsUI handle 3PL cold-chain storage and handling billing?
If you store perishables for clients, OpsUI's stock and movement records give you the data behind cold-chain billing: pallet and unit positions by zone, receipts, picks and dispatches per client, and the activity that storage and handling charges are calculated from. Reporting surfaces it so charges are evidenced against actual movements rather than estimated after the fact.
