• 4.1.2 Ensure batch records are accurate, complete, and signed off by responsible personnel at each stage of production.

4.2 Components and Materials Reconciliation

• 4.2.1 Verify reconciliation of raw materials and packaging components used against the quantities documented in batch records.
• 4.2.2 Record any discrepancies found during reconciliation and investigate root causes as per established procedures.

4.3 In-Process and Finished Product Inventory

• 4.3.1 Compare in-process inventory quantities (e.g., semi-finished patches) documented in batch records with physical counts.
• 4.3.2 Conduct final reconciliation of finished product units manufactured against the expected output documented in batch records.

4.4 Documentation Review

• 4.4.1 Review all batch records, reconciliation
