Upload Compliance Documents

How to include compliance information in The BHive

  1. If a chemical is unverified, check with your chemical suppliers for compliance documents (e.g. certificates, test reports)
  2. Upload compliance documents.
  3. We will review the document and update the compliance information within 4 weeks. For your next monthly inventory, scan the chemicals again with your mobile phone or new Excel Upload option and select from the database.
