MANUFACTURING TRACEABILITY SOFTWARE

Manufacturing traceability software for complete lot genealogy

Connect the actual materials consumed on a production run to its finished output, quality decision and downstream shipments.

The example includes partial consumption, multiple input lots, output batches, a held batch, rework context and customer shipment history—not a generic inventory table.

Free for up to five users. No credit card required.

Adapt fields, workflows, and dashboards without code. Explore 1,000+ app templates and use cases

The gallery shows populated sample data in the Jodoo App. Open any view to inspect the records and decisions, then install a copy to adapt the fields and workflow.

ACTUAL MATERIAL FLOW

Trace what production used, not only what the BOM expected

A bill of materials defines the plan. Genealogy records the actual lots and quantities that became a specific output.

01

Start with released inputs

Select only material with an approved status and retain its supplier lot, internal lot, quantity and expiry context.

02

Record actual consumption

Connect each input lot and consumed quantity to the production run, including partial use and substitution.

03

Create the output identity

Assign the finished or intermediate batch and preserve yield, production date, line and responsible team.

04

Carry genealogy forward

Every movement and shipment references the output batch so a later investigation can reach the exact destinations.

REAL PRODUCTION EXCEPTIONS

Represent split, merge, rework and hold without losing the chain

The trace must survive the cases that break a simple one-input, one-output diagram.

01

Split a lot

Keep the parent identifier and record each child container, location or repack lot rather than creating unrelated stock.

02

Merge inputs

Link every contributing lot to the same output so backward tracing does not stop at a blended batch.

03

Rework an output

Record the original batch as an input to the rework run and preserve the reason and new disposition.

04

Hold affected material

Quarantine the remaining lot and connected output while quality determines the scope and release decision.

PRODUCTION TRACE CHECK

Know whether a batch is ready to release

Release should depend on connected evidence, not on a manually typed finished status.

CheckReady whenIf not ready
Input identityEvery consumed quantity references a valid released lotResolve missing or incorrect lot links
Output identityBatch code, item, quantity and production context are completeReturn the run for correction
Process evidenceRequired checks and deviations are resolvedKeep the output on hold
Genealogy balanceInput, output and expected variance are understandableInvestigate unexplained quantity
Quality decisionAssigned reviewer records release with evidenceDo not make the batch available to ship
DECISIONS FOR PRODUCTION AND QUALITY

Give each role a useful operating view

The system should reduce investigation time during normal production, not only exist for an audit.

01

Production supervisor

See runs waiting for inputs, checks, output confirmation or deviation resolution.

02

Quality reviewer

See unreleased batches, failed checks, attached evidence and the exact release or return decision.

03

Warehouse team

See whether the batch may move or ship, where it is and which quantity remains.

04

Traceability coordinator

Search an input or output and see genealogy, locations, shipments and unresolved gaps together.

WHY TEAMS BUILD THIS IN JODOO

Adapt production traceability without rebuilding your core systems

Jodoo can sit between shop-floor work and existing ERP or MES data, giving teams a configurable place for genealogy, exceptions, reviews and dashboards.

A focused manufacturing traceability App can be configured in hours and expanded as lines, products and control points change.

Model your actual transformation

Add co-products, repacks, rework, line clearance or site-specific checks without forcing every operation into one template.

Use workflow where judgment matters

Quality release and returned batch records use human tasks and recorded outcomes rather than an ungoverned status field.

Improve the App as the process changes

Business teams can adjust forms, roles and decision views without writing code or replacing their transaction system.

WHERE THIS APPROACH FITS

Use a configurable traceability App where your process needs flexibility

Jodoo is designed for teams that need connected records, human decisions and adaptable workflow. It does not pretend to replace every specialist execution system.

A strong fit

Operational teams that can identify lots, batches or serials and need to connect receiving, production, movement, shipment and follow-up without commissioning custom software.

Plan an integration

Connect ERP, MES, WMS, label printing or machine data when those systems remain the system of record for transactions or automated capture.

Where specialist systems still matter

The example is not a validated pharmaceutical eBR, a certified regulatory solution or automatic proof of compliance. Your controls, validation and governance still matter.

COMMON QUESTIONS

Questions about manufacturing traceability software

How is manufacturing traceability different from inventory tracking?

Inventory tracking focuses on balances and locations. Manufacturing traceability also records which input lots were consumed by each run and which output batches they created.

Can the App handle split and merged lots?

Yes. Use connected genealogy records to preserve the parent-child relationship for a split and every contributing input for a merge or blend.

Can Jodoo integrate with an ERP or MES?

Jodoo supports integration patterns, but the exact design depends on which system owns items, orders, quantities and completion. Define that boundary before automating synchronization.

Is this an electronic batch record for regulated manufacturing?

It is a configurable operational batch record example. Regulated environments must assess validation, signatures, access, retention and other applicable requirements before use.
