At a glance
With the help of batch tracking, it will be documented, which material/which article has been used in production or for customer orders. Thereby the batches or their characteristics can be considered in all company processes like the goods receipt or picking. In addition, the materials can be guided as individual verification according to serial numbers.
In both cases, the exact origin, quality and refining as well as their way in the procurement and production process will be verified and documented up to the final customer. Material single pieces will be marked and are individually distinguishable.
