Workflow

Cosmetri's unique tasks manager is designed especially for cosmetics businesses. Easily integrate auto-generated compliance tasks into your business workflow and create custom tasks for any type of activity, optionally associating these with any product, formula version or raw material. Set reminders and share notes with other users, including any professionals you grant access to Cosmetri, such as your safety assessor or in the laboratory. Each user's dashboard displays their tasks at-a-glance along with task statuses, ensuring that important deadlines are met and nothing is missed.

Compliance

The Compliance Checker monitors your products, alerting you to missing data or documents and generating easy to action tasks. Set compliance zones for each formula and add custom links to your preferred regulatory data sources, in addition to those available within the application. Full integration with CosIng enables easy and fast lookup of EU regulatory data, while the EU Ingredients Watch alerts you to any changes to data for ingredients in your formulas.

Manufacturing

Enter an expected yield value and Cosmetri will calculate all required inventory for any target amount, including converting volume and weight values. Configure tests for quality assurance, with each manufacturing order assigned a logical sequence of approval statuses, from the setup stage right through to final release of your product batch. At the dispense stage, Cosmetri will calculate all required inventory, generating a dispense list and labels. During pack-out, any packaging set associated with each unit size of your product will enable assignment of all required packaging inventory.

Quality Assurance & GMP

Tests can be easily configured, from simple pass/fail type to laboratory tests requiring values that fall within specified ranges. Easily set test schedules for challenge tests and assign a test operator, with all due dates calculated. Configure test groups which can be associated with received raw materials, formulas, manufacturing orders and even packaging items. Any tests must be passed before approval status can bet set, ensuring tight integration with Cosmetic GMP ISO:22716. User logs show the history of status changes. Export test result to PDF and XLS.

Formulation

Your Cosmetri account comes pre-loaded with approx. 25,000 ingredients, searchable by INCI and CAS. Directly add these ingredients to your formula’s composition, with Cosmetri automatically converting these to raw materials to enable you to add supplier batch information, inventory and regulatory data and documents. Easily clone any formula version for fast and effective trial formulation and R&D. Cosmetri calculates your label of ingredients (EU), including rules for perfume allergens, colors, etc.

Batch Traceability

Maintain batch traceability through integration with Cosmetri’s manufacturing module, with your formula auto-updated to the latest raw materials batch associations for each product batch you produce. Generate up-to-date PIFs and batch protocols and achieve tighter compliance with Cosmetics GMP ISO:22716 through user logs, quality assurance, management of all regulatory documents and full traceability of all raw materials batches and their associated documents.

Packaging

Manage your packaging materials and inventory. Create packaging sets which can be associated with any product and unit size. During the pack-out stage of the manufacturing order, simply enter the number of units filled and all packaging inventory will be auto-calculated and deducted. Enter costs for packaging items to include packaging set costs in your formula cost calculations. Set packaging items to auto-approve or associate with any test group for quality assurance.

Costs Calculator

Enter costs for your raw materials batches, either as simple cost per weight/volume, or in arrays to show savings for bulk purchases. Include additional costs such as for shipping, labor or sales tax. Raw materials and packaging costs can be calculated for each unit size of your product and for any required production amount, including the total amount of each raw material required and the associated costs. Compare costs side-by-side for different formula versions and export the data to XLS.
