A medical store has needs an ordinary billing app can't meet: medicines come in batches with expiry dates, you must never sell expired stock, and you need clean GST bills and supplier records. The right billing software for a medical store tracks all of this for you. Here's what matters — and how Dukai handles it.
What pharmacy billing software must have
- 📅 Batch & expiry tracking — every batch records its expiry date.
- ⏰ Near-expiry alerts — get a daily list of medicines expiring soon so you can return or clear them.
- 🚫 Expired-stock warning at the till — a clear warning before an expired item is billed.
- 🏷️ Supplier & cost records — know which distributor supplied each batch and at what cost.
- 🧾 GST bills — proper invoices with CGST/SGST, shared on WhatsApp.
- 📦 Barcode billing & stock — fast counter billing with automatic stock updates.
How Dukai protects you from expiry losses
Dukai captures the expiry date and batch number when you add stock. It then sends a daily near-expiry alert listing what's expiring in the next few days, so you can return it to the distributor in time. At the counter, it follows FIFO (first-expiry-first-out) and warns you before billing an expired batch — protecting both your customers and your licence.
Track suppliers and costs per batch
Each batch can record its supplier, cost and MRP, and even carry its own batch barcode. Scan a strip and Dukai tells you which distributor it came from — making returns, audits and re-ordering simple.
