Each group bearing the same batch, lot, or equivalent number in a single delivery
can be regarded as the same material. Subsequent deliveries of the same
manufacturer's batch or lot number should also be regarded as separate
materials, since the handling and transport may have affected their quality.

Standard name
The standard name refers to the unique approved name listed in the company's
standard names register. The standard name is the same one that is used in the

product formulation bill of materials. For example, sodium chloride can also be
generically called salt or sodium salt. Standardizing the name internally
eliminates any confusion.

The term "USP" refers to the grade or quality of the material. Generally, chemicals
will be labeled "USP", "BP", or "EP" grade to indicate that they ere pharmaceutical
grade.

Material item code
The material item code is linked to the Standard Name, and is used in the Master
Batch Record and formulation. This code also corresponds with the barcode, and
usually helps identify the approved supplier and grade of the material.

UIN (Unique Identifying Number)
The UIN (Unique Identifying Number) is alternately called the Goods Inward
Number (GIN), lot number, or batch number. The number is critical because it
uniquely identifies and allows traceability of that consignment of material. The
UIN is recorded in the laboratory, on the computer system, and in production

when a product is formulated.

Expiry date
The expiry date indicates the date after which the goods cannot be guaranteed
to be safe for use. Clearly, once goods have expired, they must be placed in reject
areas and not used.

Storage conditions

Materials and products can degrade if not stored under the approved storage
conditions. For finished products, storage conditions are registered with the
government, meeting it a legal requirement to store them in compliance.
