Pharmaplus+ Automated Purchase Orders help retail pharmacies in India automate the procurement process based on real-time inventory levels. This feature ensures that pharmacies maintain the right stock levels, reducing stockouts and overstocking while improving efficiency and saving time.
Challenges in Manual Procurement
Manually managing purchase orders can be error-prone and time-consuming, often resulting in stockouts of essential medications or overstocking items that are not in demand. Without an automated system, pharmacies may struggle to balance inventory and miss opportunities for efficient stock management. Pharmacies need a system that automates ordering, ensuring timely procurement and optimal stock levels.
How Pharmaplus+ Automated Purchase Orders Work
Pharmaplus+ Automated Purchase Orders monitor inventory levels continuously and generate purchase orders when stock reaches a pre-set reorder point. Pharmacy managers can set reorder thresholds for various products, ensuring timely replenishment. The system automatically sends purchase orders to suppliers based on real-time data, reducing stockouts and preventing over-ordering. Pharmacies can also customize order frequency, track supplier performance, and monitor order status for better procurement management.
