Goods-in software: where traceability actually starts.
Every trace you'll ever run ends at an intake record.

Every backward trace, every mass balance and every supplier-recall response terminates at the same place: the goods-in record. If intake is a carbon-copy book with 'flour x 20' scrawled at 7am, everything downstream inherits the gap. Keystone makes lot-level intake take under a minute per delivery, supplier, lot code, quantity, dates, COA, checks, and everything downstream inherits the precision instead.

• Receive by supplier lot: code, quantity, dates, templated per supplier
• COAs and conformance docs attached to the delivery they belong to
• Intake checks (temperature, condition, residue status) recorded at the door
• Every batch links to the deliveries that fed it, automatically

Audits walk upstream. Intake is where they arrive.

The vertical audit always ends the same way: the auditor follows your batch back to its raw materials and asks for the intake evidence, which supplier lot, received when, checked how, COA where? Sites with strong production records and weak intake records fail here, because clause-level requirements (BRCGS §3.5, supplier approval and raw material acceptance) assume the goods-in register is real. The fix isn't heroic discipline; it's making the record cheaper than the shortcut: supplier-templated intake screens where a regular delivery is three taps and a lot code.

A minute at the door buys hours everywhere else.

Intake rigour is what makes the 30-second trace possible.

Keystone's headline, full chain in under 30 seconds, is really an intake story: because deliveries are lot-level records, batches link to them automatically, and the backward trace has somewhere real to land. The same records anchor your mass balance (received vs used vs stock) and your supplier scorecards (rejections, temperature failures, doc gaps per supplier, free management data). Goods-in is included in the standard licence; it's the front door of the whole system.
