Know which packaging belongs to each product
Your product list is in one system. Packaging specifications sit somewhere else. The same carton can appear across dozens of products.
Open a product’s Packaging tab to see its packaging items, who added them, and their assessments. Shared packaging stays connected to the products that use it.

See who you are still waiting on
Some suppliers send a complete file. Others miss a packaging item or leave a request unanswered. Your team needs a clear follow-up list.
The PPWR dashboard shows requests by supplier and separates work waiting on you from work waiting on suppliers. Open a count to see the requests behind it.

See what is behind the assessment result
An uploaded file does not tell you whether the packaging meets the requirements. Your team needs to see which checks need attention and why.

Keep the declaration connected to the packaging
The same packaging can serve several products. When something changes, you need to know which declaration and packaging record apply.
Open a Declaration of Conformity to see its reference, signing date, packaging items, and linked products. Keep drafts visible until the work is complete.
