Depending on your industry, business practices, and regulatory needs, you may need to add and record characteristics or attributes (otherwise known as properties) on a specific batch record, for example:

  • Details of origin for caught fish and other seafood
  • Dimensions
  • Results of quality control tests
  • Active ingredient % for a drug

Recording such data aids the business in a number of ways, for example to:

  • Produce a certificate of analysis
  • Search for a specific batch to be used in production
  • Provide statistics for caught fish species
  • Find and allocate a specific batch for a customer
  • Keep detailed records to be used in a batch trace or recall
