v1.2.5 Changes

New Features

POS & Inventory (off by default, unless availed)

• New "POS & Inventory" button on the home screen with four tabs: POS, Products, Analytics and Transaction History. Each branch keeps its own products, sales and settings.
• POS: search or filter products, pick a patient or type a walk-in name, then adjust product quantity to be bought, afterwards, choose the discount and payment method in the order panel. Low and out-of-stock items are highlighted.
• Discounts:
  • Senior Citizen and PWD are fixed at 20%. Patients with an ID on record will get their ID auto-filled in (if the discount is clicked).
  • Admins can also create custom discounts, and there is also a Custom Discount Amount option.
  • Discounts only apply to products marked as discountable.
• Payment: Cash asks for the amount tendered and shows the change. Other methods are recorded as declared, with an optional reference number.
• Receipts print directly to a roll printer. Each branch can set its own receipt header and footer.
• Products: add, edit and restock products, view stock history, and group them into colour-coded categories.
• Analytics: sales, profit and best sellers for any date range, with comparisons to the previous period and Excel export.
• Transaction History: search and filter past sales, view details, reprint receipts and export to Excel.
• Access Control: new permissions for making sales, managing products and viewing analytics (all-time or today only).

Improvements

• Prescriptions:
  • Medicine name and dosage are now one "Medication" field (e.g. "Paracetamol 500 mg"). Existing prescriptions are updated automatically, and printouts look the same.
  • When POS & Inventory is on, medicine names are suggested from the inventory as you type.
• System Logs: clearer descriptions for POS actions, plus filters for POS records.
• SOAP notes: who can create a SOAP note is now set only in Access Control.
