Overview
The input incoming inventory function is used primarily to manually enter received inventory in your BestRx system.
If you'd like the process to be more automatic, inquire with support about the EDI interface which allows connection to the wholesaler to obtain up to date files regarding purchase orders and imports that information into the system.
Any mistakes made on this screen cannot be undone once saved, to prevent discrepancies in inventory records.
However, the quantity on hand for the inputted drugs can be adjusted in the Drug File. See Adjusting Quantity on Hand in Drug File.
