Run recipe-scaled production with FSSAI-compliant batch labels, FEFO dispatch, expiry tracking, allergen management, and cold-chain warehouse zones - in one cloud system.
Tally and BUSY handle accounting. SAP and Microsoft Dynamics need 4-month implementations. Neither is built for these specific food processing manufacturers pain points:
Every consumer pack must carry: FSSAI license number, batch code, mfg date, best-before, net weight, ingredients list, nutritional info, allergen declaration. Manual label print = high error rate; FSSAI inspector finds errors, you get a notice.
Food products expire. Dispatch must always be FEFO (first-expired-first-out), not FIFO. Without batch-and-expiry tracking, expired stock ships to customers - product recall, brand damage, financial loss.
Customer recipes with milk, soy, nuts, gluten must be flagged. Production lines must not switch from allergen recipe to allergen-free recipe without CIP (Cleaning In Place) validation. Excel-tracked allergens get missed.
Frozen storage (-18°C), chilled (2-8°C), ambient. Each batch has its required storage condition. Putting frozen items in chilled storage spoils them. Receipt + put-away must enforce zone.
Recipe yields 200 kg per batch. SKU pack is 500g x 400 packs = 200kg. But customer ordered 1,800 packs = 900kg = 4.5 batches. Recipe scaling must compute ingredients for 4.5 batches with rounding.
Same product, two SKUs: your brand and customer's private-label brand. Each has different artwork, FSSAI license number, batch format. Without per-SKU label management, mix-ups cause customer rejections.
Here is exactly what we will show you in a 30-minute demo. Every screen uses real industry workflows, not generic sample data:
Recipe for 200 kg batch: ingredient A (kg), B (kg), C (g per kg), water (L). System scales recipe to any batch size. Allergens auto-flagged from ingredient master.
Order 900 kg = 4.5 batches. System creates 4 full batches + 1 half batch, assigns unique batch IDs with mfg date and best-before (= mfg date + shelf life days).
Production order checks allergens of previous run on the same line. If switch from allergen recipe to allergen-free, CIP validation is required before next run. Allergen-free certificate from QA released.
Each pack/case/pallet label prints: FSSAI license, batch code, mfg date, best-before, net weight, nutritional info, allergen declaration. Customer-specific (private label) artwork loaded per SKU.
On production completion, batch is auto-routed to required zone: frozen / chilled / ambient. Put-away cannot complete outside the required zone. Temperature deviation alerts if cold-chain breaks.
Sales order created. System suggests earliest-expiring batches first. Operator can override only with reason code; over-ride logged for audit.
Each batch goes through QA: physical, chemical, microbiological tests per FSSAI spec. Released batches available for dispatch; held batches blocked. Customer COA (Certificate of Analysis) auto-generated per dispatch.
Customer complaint on lot ABC: trace back to ingredients consumed, supplier batches, production line, operator, QA test results. 30 seconds to assemble the trace report.
Out-of-the-box features (no custom development needed):
Define recipe per batch size; scale to any production qty with rounding rules.
Every batch is uniquely identifiable with dates; FEFO enforced at dispatch.
Allergens flagged on ingredients and recipes; CIP between allergen and allergen-free.
Frozen / chilled / ambient zones; put-away enforced by required storage.
Mandatory label fields enforced; customer-specific artwork per SKU.
Ingredient → batch → finished pack → customer dispatch, in 30 seconds.

"We had two product recalls in 2024 because expired stock shipped by mistake. After ERPDrive, FEFO is enforced; you can't dispatch out-of-order without a reason code. Zero recalls in the year since go-live, and our FSSAI audit was the easiest one we've had."Measured outcomes
Yes. Label templates enforce all FSSAI-mandatory fields: license number, batch code, mfg date, best-before, net weight, nutritional info, allergen declaration. Customer-specific (private label) artwork is loaded per SKU. Labels print per pack, per case, per pallet.
Sales order creation queries the inventory for batches with the earliest best-before that satisfies the customer's minimum-shelf-life requirement. Operator can override only with reason code; override is logged for audit. Standard FIFO is also supported per customer preference.
Yes. Each ingredient has allergen flags (milk, soy, nuts, gluten, etc.). Recipes inherit allergens from ingredients. Production lines have a 'previous run' history; if switching from allergen-containing to allergen-free, CIP validation is required and an allergen-free certificate from QA must be released.
Warehouse zones are defined as frozen (-18°C), chilled (2-8°C), or ambient. Each item master specifies required storage. Put-away enforces zone; put-away cannot complete outside the required zone. Temperature sensor data (if available) flags deviations.
Yes. Recipe master defines ingredients per standard batch (e.g. 200 kg). When a production order is created for any quantity, the system scales the recipe with configurable rounding rules (round to nearest 100g, etc.) and verifies that scaled quantities fit available pack sizes.
Forward: from any ingredient batch, see which production batches consumed it and which customers received those batches (recall scenario). Backward: from any customer complaint, trace back to production batch, ingredient batches, supplier batches, and supplier Mill TCs. 30-second report assembly.
Food preparations span chapters 19, 20, 21: malt extracts and pasta (1901, 1905), prepared vegetables (2001-2008), soups (2104), other food preparations (2106). GST rates vary 0% to 18% depending on processing level. ERPDrive pre-loads HSN per category.
