Storage of 25 and 50 mL minibags in multi-packs on units

Wondering if others could share policies/guidelines for storage/use of Baxter 25 and 50 mL minibags provided in multi-packs on patient care units. Once the overwrap is opened, do you have process for dating or using the bags within 24 hours?
