Add a Receiving Programme

This form is used to set up incoming and receiving inspection programmes. These relate to the purchase, delivery and receipt of materials and ingredients used in the production of your food products and sourced from approved suppliers. The programme allows for the recording of tests relating to both the general delivery and also the specific items contained in the delivery. Receiving programmes in this module are built from Tests that are set up in the Tests module under Master Data.
