Manage Production Runs

Use this tool to add Production Runs for your produced item.  Each run includes the item, a batch/lot number, the quantity produced, production and expiration dates, and the location at which the process took place.  Production runs and their associated batch/lots are key to shipment tracing.

Once a run is set up, you can add a Bill of Materials for each ingredient used in the process.
