I’m wondering if the barcodes on the SFPs would let you simplify things a bit more vs. updating a spreadsheet. IE: Some sort of barcode scanner app for your phone that could automagically add/remove from some sort of document or database?

If you buy your SFPs from fs.com, they come in a nice organizer -- and if you buy less than a tray full, you still get a tray. I keep spares in the trays, labeled on the outside -- I then put the trays in a cheap toolbox / fishing tackle box, and list what's in each one in a Google spreadsheet.
Whenever I'm actually at the cage / rack and have a few minutes I compare the spreadsheet to reality, and update accordingly (SFPs, and XFPs in particular evaporate over time...)

Any recommendations to keep track of different SFP and keep them organized? Any storage boxes / trays designed for SFPs?
