# Create Recipe Tanks via Manufacturing

## Create and Manage Recipe Tanks with Compliant Additive Tracking and Traceability in Manufacturing

This guide explains step by step how to create a **Recipe article** in your inventory system, configure it correctly, and manage production while ensuring accurate stock control and traceability of additives via the **Manufacturing Module**.

---

#### Step 1: Create the Recipe Article

1. Navigate to **Inventory \> Articles** and create a new article called *Recipe A* (for example)
2. In the **General** tab:
   
     - Set the article as **Self Manufactured**
     - Set the **Type** as *Additive*
     - Choose the **Additive Category** as *Fertilisation*
     - Define the **Quantity** as *1*
     - Choose **Unit**
       
       ![](https://support.cannavigia.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Captura%20de%20ecr%C3%A3%202025-09-24%20165151-png-1.png?width=670&height=610&name=Captura%20de%20ecr%C3%A3%202025-09-24%20165151-png-1.png)
       
        
3. In the **Manufacturing** tab:
   
     - (Optional) Add a task such as *Recipe Preparation*, depending on your SOPs
     - Under **Components**, add the per liter quantity of each additive included in your recipe
     - **Save** your article

![](https://support.cannavigia.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Captura%20de%20ecr%C3%A3%202025-09-24%20170049-png.png?width=670&height=538&name=Captura%20de%20ecr%C3%A3%202025-09-24%20170049-png.png)

💡 By defining the amount of each additive per liter, the system will automatically calculate the correct proportions during production. For example, if you plan to produce **50L of the recipe**, the system will display the exact amount required for each additive.

---

#### Step 2: Plan the Production

1. Go to the **Manufacturing \> Projects** and create a new production inside a project
   
   ![](https://support.cannavigia.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Captura%20de%20ecr%C3%A3%202025-09-24%20170715-png.png?width=670&height=206&name=Captura%20de%20ecr%C3%A3%202025-09-24%20170715-png.png)
2. In the *Article* tab, select the recipe article you created
3. Define the **Planned Quantity** (e.g., 10L, 50L, etc.)
   
    As soon as you set the planned quantity, the system will automatically update the **Required Amounts** of each additive required according to your predefined ratios  
   ![](https://support.cannavigia.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Captura%20de%20ecr%C3%A3%202025-09-24%20171436-png.png?width=670&height=484&name=Captura%20de%20ecr%C3%A3%202025-09-24%20171436-png.png)
4. In the *Planning* tab, set an **Estimated starting date** and **Duration**  
   ![](https://support.cannavigia.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Captura%20de%20ecr%C3%A3%202025-09-24%20171732-png.png?width=670&height=314&name=Captura%20de%20ecr%C3%A3%202025-09-24%20171732-png.png)
5. Choose a **Supervisor** in the *Supervision* tab and **Save**  
   ![](https://support.cannavigia.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Captura%20de%20ecr%C3%A3%202025-09-24%20172007-png.png?width=670&height=220&name=Captura%20de%20ecr%C3%A3%202025-09-24%20172007-png.png)

---

#### Step 3: Start Production & Add Materials

1. Open the planned production by clicking on the **Production Number**  
   **![](https://support.cannavigia.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Captura%20de%20ecr%C3%A3%202025-09-24%20172331-png.png?width=670&height=205&name=Captura%20de%20ecr%C3%A3%202025-09-24%20172331-png.png)**
2. Start the production process
   
   ![](https://support.cannavigia.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Captura%20de%20ecr%C3%A3%202025-09-24%20172549-png.png?width=670&height=286&name=Captura%20de%20ecr%C3%A3%202025-09-24%20172549-png.png)
3. Before finalizing, you must add the materials, otherwise stock levels will not be updated.
   
     - Go to **Actions \> Add Materials**
       
       **![](https://support.cannavigia.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Captura%20de%20ecr%C3%A3%202025-09-24%20172711-png.png?width=670&height=285&name=Captura%20de%20ecr%C3%A3%202025-09-24%20172711-png.png)**  
       **![](https://support.cannavigia.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Captura%20de%20ecr%C3%A3%202025-09-24%20172805-png.png?width=670&height=472&name=Captura%20de%20ecr%C3%A3%202025-09-24%20172805-png.png)**

Here you will find two tabs:

- **Add Material**
- **Planned Amounts**
  
    - In the *Add Material* tab, add all the individual additives and amounts
    - Follow the planned quantity as your reference (*Planned amounts* tab), the system has already calculated the correct additive amounts in Step 2  
      **![](https://support.cannavigia.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Captura%20de%20ecr%C3%A3%202025-09-24%20173636-png.png?width=670&height=211&name=Captura%20de%20ecr%C3%A3%202025-09-24%20173636-png.png)**  
      ![](https://support.cannavigia.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Captura%20de%20ecr%C3%A3%202025-09-24%20173540-png.png?width=670&height=423&name=Captura%20de%20ecr%C3%A3%202025-09-24%20173540-png.png)

#### Why Materials Must Be Added Manually?

The reason is flexibility. The system allows you to:

- Add **different quantities** than initially planned
- Add **extra additives** that were not part of the recipe

Example:

- Your standard *Recipe A* always uses Additives X and Y
- On a given day, you notice the plants require more of Additive X and decide to add an extra boost, Additive W

This way, your base recipe remains consistent, but each production batch can be adapted to the real needs of your plants.

Only when materials (additives) are added will stock be deducted.

- To perform a task, go to the *Tasks* tab, and click **Perform task**

![](https://support.cannavigia.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Captura%20de%20ecr%C3%A3%202025-09-24%20174149-png-2.png?width=670&height=284&name=Captura%20de%20ecr%C3%A3%202025-09-24%20174149-png-2.png)

---

#### Step 4: Finalize the Production

Click on the **Finish Production** button:

![](https://support.cannavigia.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Captura%20de%20ecr%C3%A3%202025-09-24%20174934-png.png?width=670&height=279&name=Captura%20de%20ecr%C3%A3%202025-09-24%20174934-png.png)

At this stage:

- The recipe article is available for use
- Additives used are correctly deducted from stock
- You can check **traceability** for each batch of additives, always knowing in which production they were used
- The article named *Recipe A* is now ready to be applied to Plant Batches  
  To learn how to do it, please follow this article: [Apply Additives to Plant Batches](https://support.cannavigia.com/knowledge/apply-additives-to-plant-batches?hsLang=en)

---

 

With this process, you ensure:

- Correct planning of additive quantities
- Flexible production adjustments when needed
- Accurate stock deduction
- Full traceability of all materials used in each recipe
