The key idea is the difference between the approved formula and the actual compounding event. The Master Formulation Record holds the approved formula: the exact ingredients, quantities, equipment, steps, and conditions needed to prepare the product. It’s the reference that defines how the compound should be made. The Compounding Record, however, documents what actually happens during a specific batch: date, batch size, who performed the work, equipment used, lot numbers and amounts of each ingredient, any deviations from the approved method, yield, and disposition after testing.

So the statement isn’t correct because the detailed procedures belong in the Master Formulation Record, and the Compounding Record should reflect that those procedures were followed (and note any deviations), not contain the full procedural instructions themselves.
