Compliance without Compromise.
Efficiency without Exception.
For chemical manufacturers, Business Central with YAVEON ProBatch manages batch recipes, SDS/GHS/VOC labeling, hazardous attributes, lot/expiry, and QC/COAs—turning audits into routine steps and giving you real batch-level margins.
From Risk to Control -> What Changes First
Business Central + YAVEON
From this (Today)
-
Batches break the chain: formulation errors, undocumented blending, unlogged hazmat
-
Labels stall at the last mile: SDS/GHS content isn't ready
-
Hazardous/VOC in spreadsheets: inconsistent audits
-
REACH/GMP documentation: manual and brittle
-
Blind batch margins: yields/co-products not captured
-
Manual weight/issue/output: keyed entries, errors
To that (with BC & YAVEON ProBatch)
-
Governed recipes & QC gates with approvals and logged exceptions
-
Right-first-time labels (SDS/GHS/VOC pulled from item/lot; no retyping)
-
Centralized lot attributes that drive QC, release status, and compliant label content
-
Governed docs & audit trails with version control and release history
-
Real batch P&L with yields/co/by-products rolling into cost and margin
-
Barcode + scale integration for weigh/issue/output/moves; WMS-ready
Let’s talk through your compliance, costing, and batch tracking challenges — and see how Business Central can support your goals.
Chemical Specific Control
Business Central + YAVEON ProBatch covers core process needs end-to-end:
Hazardous/VOC Attributes
-
Hazardous/VOC attributes at the lot drive QC checks, release status, and label content
-
Compliance frameworks (e.g., REACH, GMP) reflected in documentation flows and audit trails.
Quality, COAs & incident logging
-
Sampling plans, QC specs, and quarantine/holds until tests pass; COA creation on release.
-
Incident logging tied to lots/batches, with investigation notes and attachments.
Formulation, potency & containers
-
Recipe/route governance with approvals and scalable quantities.
-
Containerized inventory (drums, totes, pails) with unit conversions and labeling routines.

Case Study: Achieving Regulatory Control for a Specialty Chemical Producer
The Client
A mid-sized specialty chemical producer supplying custom formulations to industrial clients. Products include resins, coatings, and custom additive blends. They operate under strict environmental / safety compliance frameworks (VOC, REACH, SDS/GHS).
The Challenge
-
Regulatory reporting was scattered: SDS documents in shared drives, manual version control, multiple spreadsheets tracking VOC/hazardous attributes.
-
Inefficient batch cost tracking: co-products and waste not properly accounted for, leading to underpriced products and margin erosion.
-
Delays in label generation: labels for hazardous materials, VOC content, and packaging often delayed shipments.
-
Audit preparation was resource intensive: needed to assemble QC logs, batch yields, safety documentation manually.
The Solution
Elliott Clark Consulting implemented Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central with YAVEON ProBatch with following key modules/customizations:
-
Centralized recipe/formulation management, including version control.
-
Lot/expiry tracking, co-product tracking, and yield monitoring to capture full batch costs.
-
SDS/GHS labeling automation with hazardous/VOC attribute centralization so labels are auto-populated, errors reduced.
-
Real-time QC approval gates, incident logging, and audit trail functionality.
The Results (12 months after implementation)
-
Audit prep time went from 3 weeks to 5 days
-
Labeling errors/reworks reduced to 2%
-
Full gross margin visibility including co-products and waste
-
On time shipments went to 98%
FAQ
Yes—with YAVEON ProBatch, you run recipes, QC, labeling (SDS/INCI), lot/expiry, and traceability in one platform.
Can you support tolling/co-packing? Absolutely. We track customer-supplied materials, yields, costs, and release status end-to-end in ProBatch.
What about barcoding and WMS? We implement handheld scanning, labels, FEFO, and warehouse moves using integrated WMS add-ons.
