Juleb Forecasting Module: the ideal inventory management tool for optimized purchase and transfer processes
Running a pharmacy presents several challenges that can affect the overall efficiency. First off, accurately determining the right quantities of products needed for each branch is tricky. If a pharmacy miscalculates and orders too little, they risk running out of essential products, leading to customer dissatisfaction and potential loss to competitors. Conversely, overordering can result in high volumes of expired products, resulting in money loss. Lastly, the lack of visibility into overall inventory levels across branches further complicates the replenishment/transfer processes, contributing to imbalances where some branches have excess stock while others face understocking, which may even lead to unnecessary purchases (Endless loop)!
