Calculate the product lost in storage or during the filling process. This enables accurate accounting records for a true picture of your financial status. Monitor operations to ensure an efficient filling process and detect potential leakage. Confirm accuracy of product received from vendors.
  
Each product code can be assigned a certain amount of each raw material that it uses when filled. For example an Argon/CO2 mix would have a certain amount of Argon and CO2 that it uses. Reports can then be run to calculate the total amount of raw material pumped into cylinders in a give timeframe.

For example, Product Code A represents gas cylinders that get filled with 1200 SCF (standard cubic feet) of Argon and 75 SCF of Helium. If we know that Location XYZ filled 10 cylinders of Product Code A last month, we can calculate that they should have used 1200 x 10 = 12,000 SCF of argon and 75 x 10 = 750 SCF of Helium. These numbers can then be used by the client to compare against the raw materials that Location XYZ took in over that same time frame (i.e. bulk argon/helium/oxygen/ect.) and begin to calculate how much product might be getting lost in storage and/or the fill process.

Short Description

Calculate the product lost in storage or during the filling process. This enables accurate accounting records for a true picture of your financial status. Monitor operations to ensure an efficient filling process and detect potential leakage. Confirm accuracy of product received from vendors.


Summary

At a high level, this feature will allow our customers to create reports outlining the amount of certain components (often for gases) that go into the products that they sell. In the current design, components are being tracked at the Product Code level.

For example, Product Code A represents gas cylinders that get filled with 1200 SCF (standard cubic feet) of Argon and 75 SCF of Helium. If we know that Location XYZ filled 10 cylinders of Product Code A last month, we can calculate that they should have used 1200 x 10 = 12,000 SCF of argon and 75 x 10 = 750 SCF of Helium. These numbers can then be used by the client to compare against the raw materials that Location XYZ took in over that same time frame (i.e. bulk argon/helium/oxygen/ect.) and begin to calculate how much product might be getting lost in storage and/or the fill process.
