Approve pre-weighed ingredients with electronic signature

The electronic signature approval process allows you to approve or reject individual pre-weighed ingredient lines with full 21 CFR Part 11 compliance and traceability. Each approval action is recorded with your user ID, timestamp, and full name, and all actions are logged in the audit trail.

To approve a pre-weighed ingredient line, follow these steps:

1. Navigate to the weighing line that requires approval.

2. Select Approve on the line you want to approve.

   The electronic signature dialog opens.

3. In the User Name field, enter your user name.

4. In the Password field, enter your password.

5. Select OK to submit the electronic signature.

   The system validates your credentials and records the approval with your user ID, timestamp, and full name. The line status updates from Pending to Approved.

   If credentials are invalid, the system displays an error message and the line remains in Pending status. Approval cannot be undone once recorded.
