Every lot accountable. Every hold traceable. Nothing released without a record.
Quality in Better Data is a loop. QC assessments, lot hold actions, and release decisions are first-class operational events with full audit trails and real-time stock impact.
LOT LMB-LOT-2025-001 · Bond Repair Serum
Hold reason: Viscosity out of spec - batch QC failure
Initiated by: QC Team · 14 Feb 2026
Stock impact: 840 units quarantined
Lot-level
Holds scoped to individual lot - not the entire SKU
Real-time
Lot hold immediately removes units from available inventory
Audit-ready
Every QC decision logged with actor, timestamp, and evidence
QC assessments, not QC emails
Every goods receipt can trigger a QC assessment in the quality loop. Pass, fail, and hold decisions are recorded against lot records with operator and timestamp context. Stock remains controlled until the loop reaches an explicit released outcome.
- - QC assessment automatically created on GRN receipt
- - Pass/fail/hold decision recorded with inspector and timestamp
- - Failed lots move to ON_HOLD - inventory reserved, not available
- - Passed lots released to available stock automatically

Hold propagation
Lot holds that propagate instantly
A single hold action updates connected loops immediately. Inventory availability adjusts in place, fulfillment routes around blocked lots, and open procurement activities receive clear quality flags. This gives operators one decision point with system-wide enforcement.
- - Hold types: quarantine, quality failure, regulatory, supplier dispute
- - Instant stock impact - available inventory updated in real time
- - Fulfillment picks blocked for held lots automatically
- - Hold lifted only via resolved QC event with release authorization
Resolution and CAPA on the record
Holds are resolved through explicit disposition steps such as re-test, disposal, or supplier return. Corrective action notes and supporting evidence remain attached to the lot timeline so quality teams and auditors can reconstruct the complete decision path.
- - Hold resolution requires explicit disposition decision
- - Re-test results attached to the lot audit trail
- - Corrective action notes linked to the quality event
- - Supplier return or disposal triggers procurement and inventory events
