Lots, QR codes and data
One lot, one ID
Every production lot gets an automatic ID, never typed by hand, of the form:
MR-[SPECIES]-[FORMULATION]-[YEAR]-[NUMBER], for example MR-JOJ-F2-2026-001.
The lot is tied to one precise version of its formulation: a changed recipe becomes a new version and never overwrites the old one.
A lot's public page
The QR code printed on the label opens the lot's public page, read-only. It shows the species, the formulation and its version, the production date, the lot's status and its quality card.
It shows validated information only. Costs, customers and unvalidated data never appear on it. If no measurement has been validated yet, the page says so instead of showing a number.
A lot is In production, Released (it may be used) or Blocked (it must not be used).
Measured, estimated, sample data
Every number carries a label:
| Label | What it means |
|---|---|
| Measured | The value was measured with an identified instrument. |
| Estimated | The value is calculated or taken from another document; it was not measured. |
| Sample data | The value is there to show the platform. It is labelled as such, counts in no indicator or export, and disappears when the Administrator removes the sample data. |
Instruments and calibration
The platform does not calibrate instruments: calibration is done by a competent laboratory. It keeps each instrument's calibration certificate and warns the team before it expires.
