Manage pharmacy processes in one system
Pharmacy operations combine purchasing, receiving, storage, transfers between warehouses and stores, inventory counts, retail sales, and accounting. Lot traceability and shelf-life date controls are particularly important: this data must follow each product from receipt through sale or write-off.
Odoo connects these processes through integrated apps. Purchase handles purchasing; Inventory and Barcode manage receiving, stock, lots, and transfers; Point of Sale handles sales, payments, receipts, and returns; and Accounting manages invoices, payment journals, and financial reporting. Quality can provide incoming goods inspections when needed.

Which processes Odoo supports
Odoo connects a pharmacy chain's core operations through shared product, vendor, stock, lot, sales, and payment data
Odoo Point of Sale lets you find or scan products, apply configured prices and discounts, accept payments, and issue receipts. You can also generate invoices and process returns and refunds from POS.
Purchase creates requests for quotation and purchase orders. After delivery, receipts are processed in Inventory or Barcode: employees confirm actual quantities and enter lot numbers and shelf-life dates where required.
Track stock across warehouses and internal locations. Odoo supports internal transfers, inter-warehouse replenishment, inventory counts, and available and forecast quantities.
Odoo stores lot numbers and stock movement history for tracked products. Lots can have expiration, removal, and alert dates. FEFO determines picking order using the lot removal date.
Reordering rules keep forecast stock between minimum and maximum levels. Automatic triggering creates purchasing or manufacturing documents according to the configured route. Purchased pharmacy products use the Buy route.
Quality creates inspections for warehouse operations. At receipt, checks can record completion, pass/fail results, measurements, instructions, or photos.
POS payment methods link to accounting journals. Sales can generate invoices, while Inventory reports analyze receipts, stock, and movements.

Lot traceability and expiration date control
Odoo tracks products by lot and preserves their movement history from receipt to disposal. Each lot can have several dates used in warehouse processes.
The expiration date marks when a product is considered expired. The removal date indicates when it should be taken out of available stock. The alert date triggers a notification that the deadline is approaching.
With an FEFO strategy configured, Odoo prioritizes lots with the earliest removal date for picking. This helps organize the handling of products with limited shelf lives and reduces the risk of unsalable stock.
