MANUFACTURING | QUALITY | BATCH RECORDS | ELECTRONIC BATCH RECORD

Electronic Batch Record Software

A paper batch record picks up a coffee ring and an illegible signature by the time anyone reviews it. Kissflow builds the record from the approved recipe, captures e-signatures step by step, and flags a deviation the moment it happens, not weeks later.

One electronic record, captured step by step as the batch runs

A paper batch record travels the floor in a clipboard, picks up a coffee ring, a crossed-out weight, and an initials-only signature next to a step nobody can read six months later.

A batch manufacturing record is supposed to prove, step by step, that a batch was made the way its recipe requires, with a signature at every checkpoint. On paper, an out-of-spec weight sits on the page until a reviewer catches it days later, a deviation gets written up after the fact instead of flagged in the moment, and QA has to read every page by hand before release, because nothing was checked as it happened.

Kissflow builds the batch record directly from the approved recipe, captures an e-signature at each step tied to the person, time, and value entered, flags a deviation the moment a reading falls outside spec, and hands QA a compiled, complete record instead of a stack of pages to review line by line.

A paper batch record is only as good as the handwriting and the person reading it later

Errors go unflagged until review

A weight entered outside spec sits on the page until someone reviewing the record days later happens to catch it.

Signatures are easy to fake, hard to verify

Initials next to a step prove someone was in the building, not that the step was actually followed correctly.

Deviations get noted after the batch is done

A deviation that should have stopped the batch gets written up afterward instead of flagged in the moment.

Review takes as long as the batch did

QA has to read every page by hand before a batch can release, because nothing was checked as it happened.

Six modules. Built from your approved recipe.

Every module ships with default forms, validation logic, and dashboards. Configure each one to your operating model in the visual builder.

Recipe-driven record template

Builds the batch record form from the approved recipe or bill of materials, so operators complete a structured record, not a blank page.

Step-by-step e-signature capture

Captures an operator's signature at each step as it happens, tied to the person, the time, and the value entered.

In-line deviation flagging

Flags a weight, time, or reading that falls outside spec the moment it's entered, instead of at review weeks later.

Lot and material traceability linkage

Ties every material lot consumed in the batch to the record, feeding the genealogy a traceability system needs.

Calculation and completeness checks

Runs required calculations and checks every field is complete before the record can move to review, catching gaps before QA sees them.

Compiled record handoff to QA

Packages the completed batch record for QA review and release, with every step, signature, and deviation already in one place.

From request to system of record in four steps

Capture

Capture

The record form is generated directly from the approved recipe or bill of materials, and operators enter values and sign off at each step as the batch runs.

Validate

Validate

Any reading outside spec is flagged the moment it is entered, not discovered at review.

Track

Track

The record builds step by step across the run, with signatures and deviations visible in place.

Report

Report

The complete, validated batch record is compiled and handed to QA for review and release, and stands as the master record for the batch.

Built to prove a batch was made right, as it's made

Generated from the recipe, not a blank page

The record form matches the approved recipe exactly, so operators can't skip or reorder a required step.

Deviations caught in the moment

An out-of-spec reading is flagged as it's entered, not found by a reviewer days later.

Signatures that actually verify

An e-signature is tied to the person, time, and value, not an initial next to an illegible entry.

Live in weeks, not a re-implementation

Configure recipe templates, deviation limits, and sign-off requirements in the visual builder, without a change request against your MES.

Feeds traceability automatically

Material lots consumed in the batch link straight into the genealogy a recall or audit needs.

A record QA can actually review fast

A compiled, complete record replaces a stack of pages read line by line.

We help quality leaders capture a batch record that holds up on its own

    This app is where the batch record gets created, an operator captures data and signs off step by step as the batch runs. Batch Record Review & Product Release is the downstream QA workflow that reviews the completed record and decides whether the batch ships.

    This app captures the material lots consumed in a specific batch as it runs. Product Traceability & Lot Genealogy links those lots across every batch into a searchable genealogy for trace and recall queries.

    Any weight, time, temperature, or reading entered outside the recipe's defined spec, flagged the moment it's recorded, not at review.

    No. If you run a broader MES, Kissflow adds the electronic batch record capture and e-signature workflow and can connect to it.

    Yes. Quality leaders configure recipe templates, deviation limits, and sign-off requirements in the visual builder, and the AI Builder can generate a working app from a plain-language description.

    Through APIs and integration connectors, under single sign-on and role-based access, with every action written to an audit log.

    Configuration and AI generation move delivery from weeks to days, without a multi-year platform program or an engineering backlog.

    Kissflow is certified to SOC 1, SOC 2, SOC 3, ISO/IEC 27001, HIPAA, GDPR, and CCPA, hosted on Google Cloud with data residency in the US, EU, APAC, and Oceania.
