Adding a property to determine the level of important raw materials

Although the composition of raw materials and formulations are easily accessible, there may be certain raw materials which are high priority and you want to actively display the level present. To do this, you use properties and you can calculate levels as percentages or ppm or other values. The two key methods follow:

Add a new property e.g. ‘Ethanol Percentage’ as a percent property, calculated = yes, based on method Accumulation Percent, on Regulatory composition.

To your regulatory Ethanol add ‘Ethanol Percentage’ = 100.

Then the ethanol percentage will appear for all your compositions.

If you prefer to see it as PPM, then use the following set up:

Add a new property e.g. ‘Ethanol PPM’ as a number property with Unit of measure ppm, calculated = yes, based on method Accumulation, on Regulatory composition.

To your regulatory Ethanol add ‘Ethanol PPM’ = 1000000.

Then the ethanol ppm will appear for all your compositions.
