Pharmacy POS

For pharmacies: medicines found by brand, generic name (the active ingredient) or barcode, each with its strength and dosage form, sold by the strip or the whole box, with prescription items marked Rx.

Steps

  1. Scan the pack, or type the brand or the generic name in the search box: every medicine with that active ingredient is listed with its strength and form.
  2. Or pick a tab (Prescription medicines, Pain, cold & flu, Stomach & digestion, Vitamins & supplements, Mother & baby, Skin & personal care, Devices & first aid, Pharmacy services) and tap the item.
  3. A medicine kept by the strip asks for one strip or the whole box; the box adds as many strips as the box holds, at the strip price.
  4. Items marked Rx are sold on a prescription: check it before you tap Charge.

Tips

  • Set the generic name, strength, dosage form, strips in a box and Sold on a prescription on each medicine in Products; keep the unit Strip and the price per strip for medicines sold by the strip, and enter purchases in strips.
  • With the Batch & expiry add-on, record the batch and expiry date of each delivery and check the expiry board for stock to sell or return first.
  • Tick Zero-rated (0% VAT) on each medicine or medical device on the zero-rated list (in Saudi Arabia, the MOH/SFDA list). It then sells at 0% VAT next to standard items on the same bill: the till price has no VAT in it, the invoice prints a Zero-rated 0% row, ZATCA gets the line as category Z (VATEX-SA-35), and the VAT return puts it in the zero-rated box.
