Logs and Reports
Batch Log
Purpose
The Batch Log contains a record of completed batch information. Batches can be compiled on a time
basis or a count basis where the Production Registration PEC is fitted.
This log is useful for monitoring and analysing batch reject rates per product so that improvements
may be made to reduce production costs.
The log can hold up to 20 records. If this number is exceeded and the log has not been sent as a
report, then the oldest record is deleted to provide space for a new record.
