Discrete and batch production

Ashicore supports two manufacturing modes. The mode comes from the product recipe at order creation and is snapshotted onto the manufacturing order.

Discrete: Make A Quantity

Discrete production is one production run that creates finished output for a requested quantity. The order field is Quantity, and ingredient totals scale by output quantity.

Batch: Make N Batches With Planned Output

Batch production creates batch rows with their own status and output lot. The order fields are Number of batches and Expected output. Ingredient demand scales from the batch count; finished-good expected supply uses the order’s planned output. Batch production is feature-gated; locked orgs do not see batch products in the create picker.

How Ingredient Quantities Scale

Recipe basis	Order input	Ingredient total
Unit	Quantity	quantity per unit × output quantity
Batch	Number of batches	quantity per batch × batch count

Ingredients

Ingredient	Per batch	Batches	Total
Screened Compost	8 yd3	3	24 yd3
Coir Pith	5 yd3	3	15 yd3

Batch counts must be whole

Batch orders always use a whole number of batches. You can edit expected output separately when the planned yield differs from the recipe’s default batch yield.
