Generate and verify an INCI declaration

What you will accomplish

You will generate a declaration from a saved formula, choose the intended market format, save the result as a traceable snapshot, and copy or export it for review. The generator formats stored formula data and performs limited allergen screening; a qualified regulatory reviewer must verify the final declaration and artwork.

Before you start

Confirm the formula version and every raw material's identity, INCI name, mixture composition, and percentage. Resolve missing or provisional identity data before using the output for release. Decide which market and disclosure format the label requires.

Open the INCI workflow

1. Open the declaration register. Go to /inci to view formulas and prior declarations.
2. Choose the formula. Open /inci/[formulaId] for the formula version you intend to declare.
3. Review identity readiness. Correct incomplete raw-material identities before generating a release declaration.

Choose the declaration format

1. Choose Standard (EU). Use the standard EU naming convention without the expanded allergen view.
2. Choose US Format. Use the US display convention supplied by the generator.
3. Choose EU Format. Use the EU format when separate EU presentation is required.
4. Choose EU + Allergens. Add detected fragrance-allergen disclosure candidates for qualified review.
5. Choose Full Disclosure. Show the fuller available composition detail for review rather than assuming it is the correct retail-label format.

The format changes presentation and allergen handling; it does not verify the supplier identity, legal naming choice, transition timing, or product-specific label requirement.

Generate and save the declaration

1. Select Generate INCI List. Formuley builds the declaration from the current formula and selected format.
2. Review Declaration preview. Compare each displayed name and its order with the verified source data.
3. Inspect allergen findings when shown. Trace each callout to the correct raw material and confirm the market threshold and product application.
4. Confirm the saved snapshot. The generated declaration is stored with its formula and format so history can distinguish current and earlier outputs.
5. Regenerate after a relevant formula or identity change. Keep the prior snapshot as history and review the new output before use.

Copy or export the reviewed text

1. Select Copy INCI. Paste the text into a controlled review document or artwork workflow.
2. Select Export. The current user-facing export downloads a .txt declaration.
3. Label the review copy. Record the formula version, format, market, and review date outside the plain-text output when your process requires them.
4. Send the text for qualified review. Verify naming, order, incidental ingredients, mixture disclosure, allergens, claims, language, and market presentation before artwork approval.

There is no automatic handoff that makes the declaration or label compliant. Open /labels?formula=[formulaId] separately when the verified declaration and release context are ready for the label workflow.

Check your work

• The declaration belongs to the intended formula version and target market.
• Every displayed name traces to a verified raw-material identity.
• The selected format matches the intended review purpose.
• Allergen callouts have verified supplier composition, product application, threshold, and transition context.
• Copy INCI and the .txt Export match the Declaration preview.
• A qualified regulatory reviewer has approved the final declaration used in artwork.

If something does not look right

• If a name is missing or wrong, correct the raw-material identity and generate a new snapshot.
• If the order is unexpected, verify formula percentages, mixture composition, and the selected format.
• If an allergen is missing or surprising, review the supplier disclosure and product application before relying on the screening result.
• If an earlier declaration is marked historical, confirm that the current formula has a newer reviewed snapshot.
• If the text looks polished but evidence is incomplete, do not move it into released artwork until qualified verification is complete.
