Materials are representative of a given lot/batch of an inventory item used as a raw material during production. Materials should be created every-time a new batch/lot of the material is received into stock ready for consumption during production.

Materials are split into their types for tracking purposes and to facilitate data capture for QC and provenance purposes e.g. Malt Scientific Analysis Information.
