How packaging and inventory work
Every account packages the same way: click Package Batch, pick the container, and enter how many you filled. FourFoxes records the run, draws packaging stock, and creates packaged inventory lots.
-
Read the Today dashboard
Today is your landing page. It shows which checks are due or missed, which batches are ready, and what got done today.
-
Record your first batch
Click Create Batch, pick a product, and save. The start date, batch number, and earliest package date are filled in for you.
-
Set up products and product types
A product type sets process defaults like fermentation and shelf life. A product picks a type and its CCPs. Batches inherit both.
-
Set up your account with the starter setup
New accounts get a starter setup on the Today dashboard: a product type, a first product, and a pH check to confirm, edit, or dismiss, plus a checklist to a first packaged batch.
