Streamlined Formula Management with ProductVision®
As a leading formula management product development software solution, ProductVision's Formula Management module is at the core of its product development process. It manages formula and material data, formula composition, query capabilities, reporting, and more.
Efficient Query Tool
Formula Management's robust query tool lets you quickly find existing products that meet or closely match specific customer requests. Queries save time and money by swiftly locating resources or ingredients that meet any user-defined combination of property, cost, or component criteria or by finding suitable substitutes, which is essential in formula management product development software.
Simplified Product Creation and Enhancement
Formula Management significantly reduces the effort to create new products and improve existing formulas and recipes throughout your product development. You can copy new raw materials and formulas/recipes entirely from existing items or create new items using drag-and-drop functionality. The flexible editor supports free-form entry with unlimited lines and levels of intermediates.
Efficient Material Management
Multi-level "where-used" and global change features enable rapid and accurate substituting of obsolete materials and ingredients. Formula Management's automated alert system also provides instant notifications of issues during formula creation, allowing formulators to focus on developing and enhancing products for quicker market release.
Innovative "What-If" Analysis
With Formula Management's "What-If" analysis, you can quickly prototype new products. You can set a target property or cost value for a formula or recipe, "float" one or more components, and let the system determine the correct composition to meet the target. Alternatively, you can edit a formula's composition directly, and Formula Management will recalculate and display the new product properties.
Comprehensive Audit Tracking
ProductVision's audit tracking features provide a complete history of changes made to an item, including the date, time, user, and specific details of the change. You can search this audit information, ensuring you always know when and by whom changes were made.
Advanced Security Features
ProductVision allows you to secure your proprietary product information with extensive multi-level security rights. You can secure individual formulas, preventing unauthorized users from viewing or editing them. Approved formulas and ingredients can be locked to avoid further changes.
