Key Components of the Tracking Matrix
| Stage | Data Points | Verification |

| Supplier Sourcing | Vendor contact, authentication docs | QR code scanning validation |
Automating Traceability with Spreadsheet Functions
- Concatenated unique IDs combining date/client/serial
- Conditional formatting for overdue shipments
- VLOOKUP cross-referencing with authenticity databases
