We know it’s crucial that you have the flexibility to create a bespoke ordering system that works for your pharmacy.

The latest development from PharmAssist gives you that flexibility and allows you to be in complete control of where your orders go at any given time.

How does it work?

The Supplier Timeline allows you to dictate the specific times throughout the day where you want a particular supplier to be ‘turned off’, therefore ensuring your system will not process any orders to that supplier during that time.

How will it benefit me?

• Ensure next day delivery by managing cut offs – where a supplier has an earlier cut off time than others you can temporarily remove that supplier from your cascade after the specified time, therefore ensuring next day delivery and a timely supply of medicines for your patients. If a supplier doesn’t deliver on certain days such as Saturday, you could turn that supplier off for all of Friday to help maintain supply.
• Maximise same day deliveries – ensure continuity of supply of fast moving lines or critical orders by ensuring they are sent to suppliers who can offer same day delivery.

Once the same day delivery cut off passes you could turn all suppliers back on to ensure your cascade looks at the maximum number of potential suppliers in order to obtain the best prices.
