FAQs

Would we really need Date Check Pro inventory management if we improved rotation?

The truth is you can’t afford to rotate center store. There is simply too much variety today to have adequate labor hours to rotate every case stocked.

How do you deal with the dates on all new products coming in through receiving?

We keep it simple by only focusing on the closest expiration date on the sales floor. While there is a chance that new inventory can have a closer date, the frequency is minimal, and the labor cost to identify those outliers far exceeds the savings.

What type of devices does the app work on?

Date Check Pro runs best on iPads as it can be paired with a grocery cart mount. It is also available on any Android tablet or from a web browser.

Applied Data Corporation (ADC) has entered into an agreement to acquire Pinpoint Software, Inc, the parent company of DateCheckPro.  The acquisition is a strategic addition to the ADC portfolio, which includes the fresh item management platform FreshIQ and the fulfillment  platform ShopperKit, and will result in a solution that not only reduces food waste and delivers higher sales, but ultimately goes beyond sustainability to a more regenerative approach for retailers.
