Electronic dispensing recordpaperless, signed, immutable.
A paper dispensing record is the single highest source of batch-record review findings — illegible weights, missing signatures, transcription errors, late corrections. V5's electronic dispensing record captures every gram, lot, operator, scale, tare, gross and net live at the kiosk, seals it with Part 11 e-signature, and feeds the batch record self-build. No re-keying. No correction fluid. No paper.
What changes once Electronic dispensing record is live.
Indicative ranges from V5 pilot deployments. Your numbers will land near these once the workflow is operator-led and e-signed at the step.
What changes the day you switch this on.
Variances and overcharges discovered at month-end COGS.
Manual, paper-driven, and only audited after the fact.
Wet-ink signatures collected hours after the work happened.
Lot trace at the batch level — bag-level genealogy is guesswork.
Captured live, not assembled later
Part 11 + Annex 11 audit trail
Operator + witness e-signature
Tied to lot genealogy
What you actually get
Operator-led, e-signed, immutable. Engineered for regulated manufacturers — not retrofitted.
Captured live, not assembled later
Every weighing seals into the dispensing record as it happens — the auditor sees the actual scale reading at the actual time, not a transcription.
Part 11 + Annex 11 audit trail
User, role, action, before/after value and time stamp on every change. Immutable once signed; corrections require a signed amendment, not a delete.
Operator + witness e-signature
Single or two-person e-sig per BOM line, role-gated and tied to training records. Witness role can be required by SKU or by flag.
Tied to lot genealogy
Every dispensed quantity bonds forwards to the blend, fill, pack and shipment — and backwards to the vendor lot and CoA.
Review-by-exception ready
Only out-of-tolerance, missing-signature or deviation lines flag for review — quality reviews exceptions, not every weigh.
Replaces the paper dispense sheet
Print the signed PDF if you want, but most customers retire the paper sheet entirely after V5 go-live.
Curious how this lands in your environment?
One operator action — a complete, signed record.
What it leaves behind
- Every weigh sealed at the moment it happens
- Part 11 audit trail with user / role / before / after / timestamp
- Witness e-sig on actives, allergens and controlled substances
- Review-by-exception flags only what matters
- Free trial, no credit card, onboard in days

The rest of the platform this plugs into.
V5 isn't a bolt-on. Every module shares the same data, the same audit trail, the same operator. Pick where to look next.
MES
Operator-led execution: scan-gated dispense, step-by-step kiosk, equipment + scale integration, live yield. Built for regulated process & discrete manufacturing.
WMS
Receiving, putaway, transfers, cycle counts, picks, pack & ship — all lot-aware, bin-accurate, FEFO/FIFO-enforced and barcode-driven.
QMS
Built-in QMS: deviations, CAPA, supplier scorecards, in-process AQL, release-by-exception. Aligned with 21 CFR 211/820, ISO 13485 and 111.
