BMR:

1. Verify Work Order
   1. Ensure that the correct work order and batch record are available for the dispensing process.
   2. Check the material specifications, quantities, and batch numbers listed in the work order against the materials to be dispensed.
2. Record Dispensing Information
   1. Document the material name, batch number, quantity dispensed, and the date of dispensing in the BMR.
   2. Include the names and signatures of personnel involved in the dispensing activity (e.g., dispensers, QA personnel).
3. Confirm Material Identity
   1. Verify that the materials being dispensed match the descriptions provided in the work order and BMR.
   2. Ensure that the correct material is being dispensed and that it meets the required specifications (e.g., weight, type, batch number).
4. Verify Dispensing Quantity
   1. Check the quantity of the material to be dispensed against the quantity stated in the work order and batch record.
   2. Ensure that any discrepancies are documented and corrective actions are taken if necessary.
5. Cross-Check Dispensing Details
   1. After dispensing, cross-check the documentation for accuracy and ensure it aligns with the physical dispensed quantities and materials.
   2. Verify that all fields in the BMR are filled out, including the batch number, material identification, and personnel signatures.

5.2 Review and Verification

Once the dispensing activity is documented, the following verification steps should be performed:

1. QA Review
   1. QA personnel should review the BMR to ensure all dispensing activities are documented accurately and completely.
   2. Verify that all required information (e.g., material names, batch numbers, quantities) is present and consistent with the work order and batch record.
2. Discrepancy Resolution
   1. If discrepancies are found, document them in the Discrepancy Report (Annexure-1) and initiate corrective actions.
   2. Ensure that any corrections made to the BMR are documented with appropriate explanations and signed by the responsible personnel.

5.3 Final Approval

After the dispensing activities are documented and verified, the BMR should be signed and approved:

1. Signature and Approval
   1. Once all documentation is complete and verified, obtain the signatures of the Manufacturing Supervisor and QA personnel.
   2. Ensure that the BMR is filed appropriately for future reference and regulatory compliance.
2. Record Retention
   1. Store the completed BMR in a secure location as per the company’s record retention policy and regulatory guidelines.
   2. Ensure that the BMR is readily accessible for audits or inspections.

5.4 Documentation and Record-Keeping

Ensure all relevant records are maintained and easily accessible for regulatory compliance:

1. Batch Manufacturing Record
   1. Ensure the BMR is filled out accurately and completely, including all dispensing details, work order information, and personnel signatures.
   2. Verify that any changes or corrections to the BMR are documented according to company policy and approved by the appropriate personnel.
2. Discrepancy Report
   1. Document any discrepancies found during the dispensing process in the Discrepancy Report (Annexure-1) and follow up with corrective actions as necessary.
