# Batch Production - How To: Empty and Remove Vessels

_By Brandon Munn · Jan 6, 2025_

Once you have made a movement from a **Vessel,** you may want to specify to the system that it is now completely empty.  
  
Go to **Production** → **Vessel Summary →** select **Actions** on the Vessel in use and click **Empty Vessel,** then click **OK** to confirm. This will remove any contents left in the vessel and mark it down under the vessel log.

This can also be done via the vessel image in the **Batch Performance** screen and the **Process Summary**

If you are no longer using this **Vessel** for its current **Batch** you will need to release it for use again for new **Batches.**

Go to **Production** → **Vessel Summary →** click **Actions** on the relevant Vessel then click **Remove Vessel from Process** and click **OK** to confirm.  
If you had not already emptied the vessel this action would also achieve this.

This can also be done via the vessel image in the **Batch Performance** screen and the **Process Summary**
