Description

This scope item enables the storage tank management process, which supports the procurement of a new batch into the day tank and then mixing of this new batch with an existing batch in the main tank with a special mixing process order type. Quality inspection, results recording, and usage decision are performed both on the externally procured batch and the batch after mixing.
