For SALSA-approved producers and central production units
SALSA compliance software with full batch traceability
Capture supplier batch codes at goods-in, carry one code through every production stage, and trace any batch forward to the customer or backward to the delivery in a single view.
The problem
Most software that handles SALSA traceability does stock and compliance and nothing else, so you end up running a separate rota and HR system alongside it. Opsly keeps traceability, food safety and your team on one platform and one login.
- Traceability lives in spreadsheets, so answering an auditor takes hours of cross-referencing rather than minutes.
- Supplier batch codes are written on a delivery note and never reach a system.
- Finished products carry a batch code that cannot be linked back to the raw ingredient lots that went into them.
- Nobody can say with confidence which customers received a given batch if a withdrawal is needed.
- Specialist traceability software covers stock and compliance but not rotas, training or right to work, so you pay for and run two systems.
How Opsly helps
Supplier batch codes captured at goods-in
Record the supplier batch code, use by and best before dates against each delivery line as the goods are checked in, along with the delivery temperature and whether the condition was acceptable. Lot-tracked ingredients are flagged, so the team is prompted on the lines that need a code.
One batch code through every production stage
A batch keeps the same code from mixing through lamination, shaping and baking, so every stage of a multi-day chain traces back to the same raw ingredient lots and the finished article carries the code the team saw all the way through.
Forward and backward tracing in one view
Search a batch code, ingredient or product and see the full chain in both directions: what it was made from, what it went into, and which wholesale order it was delivered against. Every raw material lot names the supplier that delivered it. Batch labels print with a QR code, so anyone on the floor can scan a box and pull up its history without typing.
Allergen matrix and batch labelling
Allergens are aggregated from the recipe when a batch is confirmed and printed on the label, with an allergen matrix you can publish to wholesale customers.
Audit readiness scoring
Opsly scores your evidence against the SALSA requirements by category, covering HACCP and food safety, prerequisite programmes, supplier approval and traceability, allergen management, product control, and training and competence, then shows what is still missing.
Recall and mock recall records
Keep a register of recalls and withdrawals, record the annual mock recall exercise, and get a prompt when the last exercise is more than twelve months old.
Compliance, stock and people on one platform
Rotas, HR records, training and right to work sit alongside traceability and food safety, so the evidence an audit asks for about your team is in the same system as the evidence about your product.
The result
- Answer a traceability challenge in minutes rather than hours.
- Walk into an audit already knowing what your evidence looks like.
- Run traceability, food safety and your team from one system rather than three.
Frequently asked questions
Common questions about salsa compliance software with full batch traceability
Does Opsly handle SALSA batch traceability?
Yes. Opsly captures supplier batch codes at goods-in, carries a batch code through every production stage, and traces any batch forward to the wholesale order it was delivered against or backward to the raw ingredient lots and the suppliers that supplied them.
How does Opsly capture supplier lot numbers at goods-in?
Supplier batch codes are recorded against each delivery line as the goods are checked in, together with use by and best before dates, the delivery temperature and whether the condition was acceptable. Ingredients that need lot tracking are flagged, so the team is prompted for a code on the lines that require one rather than on every line.
Can Opsly answer a traceability challenge on a single batch?
Yes. Searching a batch code returns the full chain in both directions in one view, including the quantity used at each step, so you can follow a raw material lot through production to the orders and customers that received it, or work back from a finished product to every ingredient lot in it.
Does Opsly record recalls and mock recall exercises?
Yes. Recalls and withdrawals are kept in a register, and mock recall exercises are recorded separately so the annual exercise is evidenced, with a prompt when the last one is more than twelve months old.
Do I need separate HR software alongside SALSA compliance software?
Not with Opsly. Rotas, HR records, training records and right to work checks are part of the same platform as traceability and food safety, so the training and competence evidence an audit asks for sits beside the product records instead of in a second system.
Is Opsly suitable for a central production unit supplying several sites?
Yes. Opsly is built around central production units that supply satellite sites and wholesale customers, with traceability that follows a batch from the production kitchen through to the site or customer that received it.
