How stock is dispensed

When you sell an item, e-Pharm automatically draws from the batch expiring soonest (First-Expiry-First-Out). This minimises waste and keeps your shelves fresh without any manual batch picking.

For controlled and scheduled drugs, every receipt is also written to the Controlled Drug Register with a running balance.
