Learn Formulator Online from the beginning: follow these 18 lessons in order.

  1. 01. First login, account settings and your workspace

    Start with account settings and your workspace. Follow 18 short lessons from purchased materials to production, inventory, compliance and PIF.

  2. 02. Add suppliers and the exact raw materials you buy

    An Ingredient describes a raw-material grade. A supplier describes where it comes from. The physical delivery and its stock will be recorded as a lot in the next lesson.

  3. 03. Record deliveries, raw-material lots and opening stock

    Now connect catalogue records to physical material. Two deliveries of the same Ingredient can have different lot numbers, prices, expiry evidence and stock balances.

  4. 04. Build a 100% formula and save a reproducible version

    A working Formula is where you develop composition and process requirements. A saved Formula Version preserves the reference you will use in a Product and production Batch.

  5. 05. Define packaging, the sellable Product and Product Version 1

    The Formula defines composition. The Product adds commercial identity, declared amount and packaging. A Product Version freezes those choices and unlocks the Product-level PIF workflow.

  6. 06. Produce the pilot: actual lots, filling, costs and inventory

    Use a Batch for one production run. It records the exact Product/Formula version, physical lots, actual quantities, equipment and packing outcome. This lesson takes the training run through saved Done status.

  7. 07. Organise supporting documents and work through the PIF gaps

    The PIF workflow belongs to a controlled Product. It collects product information, reusable ingredient evaluations, supporting documents and generated document versions. Start with what you can substantiate, then make gaps explicit.

  8. 08. Trace the finished batch and establish your daily routine

    Finish the setup by proving you can find the record again. A useful workspace connects the finished Batch back to material deliveries and forward to distribution, while preserving documents and inventory history.

  9. 09. Search Raw materials and CosIng before choosing an ingredient

    Find the right reference, then verify the exact supplier grade.

  10. 10. Read ingredient and formula compliance findings

    Review identity, market, concentration and uncertainty together.

  11. 11. Check IFRA categories and fragrance allergens

    Use the intended product category and the real composition of each fragrance material.

  12. 12. Review ingredient incompatibilities and conditions

    Read the pair, evidence and process conditions before changing the formula.

  13. 13. Register equipment, service it and link it to production

    Keep the equipment register separate from formula requirements and actual batch use.

  14. 14. Apply inventory, adjust stock and reverse mistakes

    Follow the recorded stock difference instead of deducting the same material twice.

  15. 15. Complete the PIF workflow: evaluations, templates and exports

    Build a traceable draft from a controlled Product Version and documented inputs.

  16. 16. Record formula tests, use charts and compare versions

    Keep observations, specifications and controlled versions separate.

  17. 17. Calculate costs, review pricing and export records

    Use the right batch size, lot prices, packing units and currency.

  18. 18. Organise workspaces, customers and daily control

    Keep records, access and follow-up actions in the correct workspace.

Each lesson includes prerequisites, actions, screenshots and an expected result. The common example is a training body oil: 70/29/1%, a 1 kg pilot and 20 bottles of 50 g. The data is fictional.
