- Print-ready documentation for any audit
The Challenge
Batch record compilation is killing your productivity
When auditors arrive, the scramble begins. Your team digs through spreadsheets, searches for uploaded documents, and manually pieces together batch histories. Hours turn into days preparing documentation that should already exist.
- Spending hours compiling batch records before every audit
- Batch histories scattered across multiple spreadsheets and folders
- Unable to trace product lineage during a recall investigation
- Missing documentation gaps discovered during inspections
- Quality team buried in paperwork instead of quality improvement

Frequently asked questions
What inventory types support Master Batch Records?
You can generate batch records for batches, lots, package runs, vessel batches, mothers, and mother batches – essentially any inventory item in the system.
Can I see the history from parent inventory items?
Yes. The family tree feature shows multi-tier lineage, including parent and grandparent inventory items, so you can trace any product back to its source.
How do deviations and CAPAs appear in the batch record?
Any deviations or CAPAs linked to activities on the inventory automatically appear in the batch record with full details including classification, root cause, and corrective actions.
Can I print the batch record for physical documentation?
Yes. The batch record is print-optimized and generates professional documentation suitable for physical filing or handing to auditors.
What is an electronic batch record (EBR)?
An electronic batch record (EBR) is a digital version of a production batch’s documentation: every step, material, movement, test result, deviation, and sign-off captured electronically instead of on paper. GrowerIQ’s Digital Master Batch Record is an EBR system built for cannabis: the record assembles itself automatically from your live seed-to-sale data, so there is no manual transcription and nothing to compile before an audit.
What is the difference between a master batch record (MBR) and a batch production record (BPR)?
A master batch record (MBR) is the approved template that defines how a product must be made: the recipe, steps, materials, and controls. A batch production record (BPR) documents how one specific batch was actually made. GrowerIQ covers both layers digitally: your SOPs and workflows define the master record, and every executed batch automatically compiles its own production record with full traceability.
Is this the same as an eMBR or digital batch record system?
Yes. Electronic master batch record (eMBR), electronic batch record (EBR), and digital batch record all describe the same capability: replacing paper batch documentation with electronic records that meet GMP requirements for data integrity and audit trails, including EU GMP Annex 11. GrowerIQ delivers this as a core feature of the platform, not a separate add-on.
