Manage formulations, recipes, potency calculations and material substitution with version control.

The formula, controlled and calculated

A formulation is intellectual property and a compliance object at once. Potency varies by lot so quantities must be recalculated, approved substitutes must be allowed, and every version must be controlled — because using the wrong formula version is a serious deviation.

This module manages formulations properly: recipes and versions under control, potency-based quantity calculation, and governed material substitution — so the right formula, at the right strength, is used every time.

It connects directly to the rest of your Chemical Pharma ERP, and can be extended with AI or mobile apps for field teams.

✓
2
Approve version
Control and sign off the version.
✓
3
Adjust potency
Recalculate by lot assay.
✓
4
Substitute
Allow approved alternates.
✓
5
Feed batch
Push formula to the batch record.
✓
6
Compare yield
Check actual vs theoretical.

What it changes for your business

🎯
Right strength every time
Potency-based calculation keeps active content accurate lot to lot.
🔐
No wrong-version errors
Version control ensures only approved formulas reach the floor.
🔁
Controlled substitution
Approved substitutes are governed, not improvised.
📊
Yield insight
Theoretical-vs-actual comparison exposes losses.

Formula Management — frequently asked questions

Does it recalculate quantities by potency?

Yes. Because assay and potency vary by lot, the module recalculates required quantities so the finished product hits the correct active strength every time.

How is formula versioning controlled?

Every formulation version is controlled and approved, and only the approved version feeds the batch record, preventing the serious deviation of using an outdated formula.

Can it manage material substitution?

It can. Approved substitutes are defined with controls, so substitution is governed and traceable rather than an ad-hoc floor decision.

Does it link to the batch record?

Yes. The approved, potency-adjusted formula feeds directly into the electronic batch record, keeping formulation and execution perfectly aligned.
