Description:  With this app, you can view and edit the material-based composition of an unpackaged product, including all components and substances initially used in production. In addition, you can select produced substances and substances that remain in the product after production. You can adapt the composition as needed. The released composition is used to evaluate whether the product meets compliance requirements based on raw material and supplier data. It’s also used to calculate a proposal for the analytical composition and, if legal deviations have been created, to calculate a proposal for legal-area-specific analytical compositions.
