Overview

MaterialTrack™ functionality provides real-time material management and traceability in FactoryTalk® Batch execution systems, enhancing corporate inventory solutions and allowing more effective management of materials and recipes.

When integrated with company-wide inventory management systems, MaterialTrack complements ERP-level resource management by collecting the detailed material and equipment tracking information needed for optimizing your supply chain and e-business fulfillment.

MaterialTrack manages and tracks the use of materials, vessels, containers and pallets, and permanent and transient storage. It also provides automatic support for bulk containers with multiple lots.

MaterialTrack Features:

• Assign attributes to materials that are managed by MaterialTrack. Attributes identify material lots, sub-lots, and types.
• Use the MaterialTrack Editor to manage equipment, lots, and containers.
• Take advantage of inventory prioritization, which allows you to specify the order in which containers should be used during the execution of a recipe.
