Electronic batch record

Also known as: eBR, EBR.

An electronic batch record (eBR) is the digital, auditable file that captures every step, parameter, deviation, and sign-off for a single manufactured batch — replacing the paper batch record used in pharma, food, chemicals, and other regulated industries.

In depth

The electronic batch record is the definitive evidence trail for a batch. A mature eBR contains the work instructions the operators followed, the actual values they captured, the identity of every operator and the timestamps of their actions, any deviations and their resolution, and the final quality disposition. It replaces paper binders with a searchable, tamper-evident, ALCOA+-aligned record. In Azumuta, the eBR is generated automatically from digital work instructions and quality checks, with configurable templates per product.
