Your Ideas on improving CartonCloud

Make Column Headers (Expiry Date & Lot Number) Clickable for Instant Sorting

What are you wanting to do?

I would like the ability to click on the table column headers—specifically Expiry and Lot Number and Quantity—within the View Product > Stock tabs to instantly sort the data in ascending or descending order. Currently, users have to either rely on complex filters or export the report to a CSV/Excel file just to sort the stock chronologically by expiration or lot sequence.

Who will benefit from it?

  • Warehouse Managers and Inventory Controllers

  • Pickers and Packers

  • Operations staff responsible for stock rotation and quality control

How is it going to help?

  1. Facilitates FEFO & FIFO Compliance: For food, beverage, and medical logistics, adhering to FEFO (First Expired, First Out) or FIFO (First In, First Out) is critical. Being able to click the "Expiry" column to instantly view the oldest stock at the top makes assigning and picking stock significantly faster and more accurate.

  2. Reduces Clicks and Friction: Exporting a report to Excel just to perform a basic ascending/descending sort interrupts the workflow. An in-app, one-click sort on the headers would keep users within CartonCloud and streamline daily operations.

  3. Better Visibility: When dealing with multiple pallets across different warehouse locations, instantly sorting by "Lot Number" helps staff quickly group and identify batches for recalls, audits, or specific customer requests without needing to manually search through pages of unsorted data.
