Manufacture Batch
ComCept has created a module to allow users to convert raw materials into finished goods. Properly set up, this module will remove consumed materials, increase sellable products, and properly account for them. Manufacture Batch contains two distinct processes, Formula and Manufacture Batch. A Formula is essentially a template or starting point for a Manufacture Batch, all Batches require a Formula.
Formulas
There are currently two types of formulas, Product and Packaging. Product formulas are designed to be the main product (ex: paint thinner). Packaging formulas are optional formulas that can be associated with a finished good in a Manufacture Batch. These formulas allow a user to associate specific packaging costs into the price of the finished good (ex: 55 gallon drums and locking lids).

3. Formula Type
a. Product - require at least one input material and one output material. They are used as the starting points of a batch.
b. Packaging - used optionally if the user wants to include the packaging material costs in the cost of the final good. They can only have input materials.
4. Input Materials
a. Items to select from to add as Input Materials
b. Remove items from Input Materials

7. Discard - removes any changes made to the formula
8. Return To List - returns user back to the formulas search screen
Note: You will be prompted to Save or Discard any changes if you have not already before you can leave the formula details screen using Return To List
Once your Formula is created, you can use it to create a Manufacture Batch. Here is a guide on how to get started:
