An expiry date tracker for stores with lots of products to watch — convenience stores, cafés, pharmacies and unstaffed shops. While you check stock, scan the barcode and type the date to add items one after another, see the soonest dates first, and get an alert before anything goes to waste. ■ One tap per item with continuous scanning Point the camera at a product: it reads the barcode and stops on that product. Type the date as six digits, enter a count if there are several, and tap 'Add' once — you're straight on to the next product. Want the camera to read the date? Tap 'Read'. A date it reads only fills the field; nothing is added on its own. Check it against the pack and add it. Scanned the same product again? The date you just added is already filled in, so you can add more right away. A product you haven't seen before only asks for a name and storage (fridge, freezer or room temperature). Added the wrong thing? Tap 'Undo' right away. Salva never asks for prices while you add items. The person checking stock needs to know what to pull, not what it costs. ■ What leaves first comes first (FEFO) Items are sorted by expiry date, not by when they arrived. A product that came in later still goes first if its date is sooner. The same product is tracked per batch (lot). Yesterday's milk and today's milk are separate lines. Sales, disposals, adjustments and returns are recorded per batch, and the product page shows who handled what and when. ■ Alerts that ring on the device Alerts are scheduled on the device itself, so they ring even in a stockroom with no signal. You choose how many days ahead to be alerted. ■ Saved on the device first Every addition and change is saved on the device first. Weak signal in a stockroom or basement store doesn't stop you. ■ Product names from barcodes Names are filled in from a barcode–name list built by other users. When a barcode is new, the name you type is kept for the next person. You can report a name that looks wrong, and a reported name won't show on your device again. You can withdraw names you added at any time in Settings. ■ What's free Scanning, stock, FEFO sorting, alerts and product names. No limit on items and no time limit. If you use it on your own, that's all you need. ■ Salva Pro — yearly subscription per store · Invite your team — any number of people see the same stock. · Device sync and backup — your stock follows you to a new phone, even if you lose the old one. · Waste loss report — what was thrown away and how often this month, what share of what came in, and whether it's up or down on last month. When one item tops the list for several weeks running, Salva suggests how to cut the order. Subscription terms · Name: Salva Pro (one store · any number of people) · Length: 1 year.
