Hi,

I don't know if this will help anyone, or even if you have a simpler way to do this, but I order stock from CubeX (not OpenVPMS).

When I restock the CubeX (every second day or so), my stock quantities in OpenVPMS don't match anymore.

So, I wrote instructions on how I compare the date and update Stock Management without manually changing the numbers. I do this once a day as it only takes a couple of minutes.

Again, may not be of use to anyone else, but thought I'd share as there may be something of use in it.

Hi Greta,

Thanks for that. I am curious as to why you do this? I stopped using stock management in OVPMS once we got the Cubex and just let it handle this side of things for us.

Just wondering if I should be doing it!

Cheers,

Adrian

Hi Adrian,

I do it because our staff like to know if the medication is in stock and how many available before they get to CubeX. We had some complaining that they were invoicing items and didn't know it wasn't in stock before they get to the CubeX machine.

Minor issue, but with the stock management in OpenVPMS, I thought we'd give it a go we have quantities in both machines.
