From a masterdata perspective you can also create 2 materials (opened and closed cream cheese). The opened one will have a new batch and will also use the shelf life indicated on Plant data/ stor.1).

Subject: Variable Shelf Life based on storage conditions

I just got a very strange request from our quality manager. Hoping someone has some knowledge.
We are a food manufacturer (PP-PI). A material such as cream cheese may have a total shelf life of 60 days from GR under manufacturers recommended storage instructions. However, once that cream cheese is opened the shelf life diminished significantly even when stored accordingly. Does SAP have anything that would allow a 2nd or even a 3rd remaining shelf life based on the material condition or storage location of the material? All responses are welcomed, even the jib-jabs :-)
