• is an essential part of a good manufacturing practices. It defines a scheme of information so that risks of characteristic in misconception and/or error in oral communication will be minimized.
Documentation
• It subsequently supports the quality, and its uniformity, of all goods and services, as those in charge for the specific operations have clear, definite instructions to follow including active drug substances, is legally mandatory.
Documentation (OPPI Guideline)

• Complaints:
investigation, actions (including recall, if necessary). (OPPI Guidelines)
DOCUMENT CHARACTERISTICS
For actual use of documents, they should be planned and prepared with greatest care Each document shall:
Have a clear title.
Have an identification number.
Be approved by authorized person.
Have the date of issue Have a due date of revision.
List to whom it has been issued.
•Where the documents carry instructions _______
The instructions shall be precise and not ambiguous.
They shall be for each individual step and not combined. E.g. Weigh the materials; charge the weighed materials into the blend
Instructions shall be in imperative mood.
e.g. batch processing)
should provide for a periodic review, and revision, if necessary, of any document, or part thereof.
Documentation system
shall also be approved by the authorized persons.
revised versions
shall also be superseding the previous edition, and the document shall clearly indicate this.
Updated/revised versions
shall be immediately removed from active use, and copy retained only for reference.
Outdate/superseded document
If documentation is through_______ (computerized system) there shall be adequate, reliable systems in place:
electronic data processing system
For implementing efficient documentation practices, which meet, full GLP/GMP/ISO and FDA requirements. Here is a hint from the “documents” model, which lists out the areas required for GMP document implementation:
D= Design, development, deviations, dossiers and Drug Master Files for regulated markets, distribution records
O= Operational procedures/techniques/methods, Out of specifications (OOS), Out of trend (OOT) C= Cleaning, calibration, controls, complaints, containers and closures, contamination and change
control
U= User requirement specifications, utilities like water systems, HVAC, AHU etc.
M= Man, materials, machines, methods, maintenance, manufacturing operations and controls,
monitoring, master formula, manuals (quality, safety and environment), medical records
E= Engineering control and practices, Environment control, Equipment qualification documents N= Non-routine activities, New products and substances
T = Technology transfer, training, testing, Trend analysis, Technical dossiers
S= SOPs, safety practices, sanitation, storage, self-inspection, standardization, supplier qualification, specifications and standard test procedures and site master file. (Quality Assurance)
is a specific document compiled, checked, authorized and approved by an experienced personnel as necessary and appropriate. As with any other documentation master formula record shall also be open for review. If there are changes, it should be approved by designated staff responsible for production and quality control.
MASTER FORMULA RECORD
Master formula record shall;
Give patent/proprietary name of the product, and its strength.
Give pharmacopoeia/generic name of the product, and its strength.
Give dosage form (e.g. tablet, ampoule) and physical characteristics of the product.
Give sufficient, detailed information of product pack and primary packaging materials.
Give identity, quality and quantity of every ingredient, including overages/assay value based quantities, if any, irrespective of whether, or not, the material
• is one of the function of quality control. This function is performed by alert individual who have understood the written instructions is provide in the SOP on how to inspect certain quality characteristics
Inspection
is a step by step method on how to go about a specific job. The SOP in inspection should include one of those of the basic types of information needed by an inspector
• The Standard operating procedure
- the inspector has to know what operation come before and after his inspection
- When to inspect
– He should know what to look for during inspection
- What to inspect
– what is acceptable and what is unacceptable for each
characteristics inspected
- Inspection standards
