Reorder points

the plate for the lesson Reorder points

A reorder point somebody typed once is a guess. Here it moves with the calendar, because the schedule is what draws the shelf down.

Where it happens

The catalogue, in auro Supply. This lesson is part of the Supply track.

What this lesson covers

  1. Step 1

    Read the on-hand count

    It is counted in at receiving and drawn down by real dispensing, so the number is the shelf and not an average.

  2. Step 2

    Read the draw

    Pen needles pair one to one with every GLP-1 dose on the schedule, alcohol prep pads one to one with every needle, A1C cartridges with every lab order, starter kits with every new patient.

  3. Step 3

    Read the runs-out date

    It is computed against the calendar and the prescriptions rather than against last month.

  4. Step 4

    Set the mode

    Every item is on reorder automatically, suggest, or alert only. Formulary items draft their own purchase order at the runs-out date; the rest raise a suggestion.

After this lesson

You can read why an item is asking to be reordered, and set the mode it should be on.
