Seamless batch tracking: From order to goods issue
As soon as a production order for a new batch is received, it is automatically created in the system and can be tracked from then on. Batch movements are recorded from order receipt to goods issue: Each load unit of products is identified with a Barcode label which can be precisely assigned to the batch. In addition, each individual product can have a label with a Serial number received.
This barcode is scanned on receipt and issue at every interim storage facility or production site. In this way, every movement of the goods is tracked and the stock of the batch is constantly monitored.

How MK|Ware batch tracing works
In the example shown, two primary materials (green and orange), each with a batch number, are used to produce products for an order. The products are also given batch numbers and are packed in boxes which are stored on pallets. If a Production errors due to an inferior Input material in a carton can be detected by MK|Ware precisely identified The system can identify which batch of primary material is faulty. The batch can in turn be used to identify the end products into which the input material has still flowed, and these cartons are also blocked - the rest of production can continue while the affected cartons and materials are sorted out. targeted be taken out of circulation.
This detailed identification goes beyond the capabilities of software from other providers: Without software such as MK|Label the entire production stopped or all products would be written off as faulty production, as it would not be possible to trace which input materials were used in which exact product batches.
