Age bands, diaper sizes, and formula you can trace

A baby store carries food, clothing and equipment under one roof, and one of them is regulated. StackPOS keeps formula traceable to its batch while the rest sells at counter speed.

The problem

What goes wrong in Baby & Kids Store

A baby store's stock is three businesses with different rules. Clothing runs in age bands that a child outgrows in months, diapers sell in sizes where being out of one size is being out of stock, and formula is an infant food with a batch, an expiry and a recall risk attached. Treat all three the same and the one that matters most is the one you cannot trace.

Built for the way you sell

01
Formula you can trace

Batch and expiry from GRN to invoice, so a recall question has an answer.

02
Expired food cannot be sold

Past-date batches are blocked at the counter and the oldest valid batch is picked first.

03
Sizes and age bands as variants

Diaper sizes and 0–3, 3–6, 6–12 month clothing counted individually.

04
Gift receipts

A return or exchange without a price on the recipient's copy.

05
Outgrown stock surfaces

Age-band movement shows which bands are aging on the shelf.

06
Regulated stock separated

Food and equipment follow their own reorder and expiry rules within one catalogue.

Why StackPOS

It carries batch and expiry, is picked first-expiry-first-out at the counter, and cannot be sold once past its date. Batch traceability runs from goods receipt to invoice, which is what makes a recall answerable rather than a guess.

Yes, as variants. Each size and band holds its own stock, so being out of one is visible immediately rather than hidden inside a healthy-looking total for the range.

Yes. A gift receipt allows the recipient to exchange or return without showing the price paid, while the original sale stays linked for stock and accounting.
