Regulatory, Compliance & QualityPurpose
1.2. Minimize manual entry, reduce errors, provide an incontrovertible audit trail, and enable instant response to temperature anomalies in aerated drinks supply chain operations.
Trigger Conditions
2.2. Detection of temperature threshold breach (too high or too low).
2.3. Manual override/request from compliance staff for a log extraction.
2.4. Scheduled end-of-day or end-of-batch submissions.
2.5. Data change notification from IoT/sensor API.
