Retail software for pharmacy chains

iVendNext POS in a pharmacy
Pharmacy retail formats

Built for pharmacy retail

Pharmacy chain store

The lot that expires first sold first and a recalled lot left out of the lot pick, the prescription and the pharmacist named before Pay, the HMO’s share split at Pay, every controlled-drug sale written into the register and printed for signing each day, in every store of the chain.

Two counters in every store: the dispensary and the front of store. Keep the dispensing system you use: your iVendNext partner, or your own developers, can link it to the till and stock through the iVendNext API.

One till

One till on terminal, tablet and phone

A pharmacy needs no till of its own. The dispensary and the front of store run the same iVendNext POS, set up differently, so a supermarket with a dispensary trains its staff once.

Daily pharmacy operations

Pharmacy POS and retail operations in step

Keep checkout, stock, expiry, payments and the counter’s rules in step.

Batch, expiry and stock control
  • Sell every medicine by lot, with the lot that expires first picked for the sale.
  • Count stock and receive goods with handheld devices.
  • Transfer inventory across stores and warehouses.
Prescriptions at the counter

Pharmacy counter rules

  • A prescription line is paid only against a valid prescription for that patient, with fills left.
  • Prescription and controlled medicine is sold only by a pharmacist whose licence is in date.
  • The prescriber and the directions stay on each dispensing, and a daily prescriptions register prints from them.
A recall in one press

Expiry and recall

  • Take recalled lots off every online till at once.
  • Find each store’s stock of them, and the customers whose sales carried them.
  • Where you choose it, dispose of recalled stock only with the regulator’s visit on record.
Pharmacy labels and barcode handling
  • Print product and shelf labels from the label printing screen, or queue them from the handheld as you receive.
  • Scan barcodes that carry the batch and the price.
  • Reprint labels when product or price information changes.
Stock and expiry insights
  • Spot low stock, and lots near their expiry date, store by store.
  • Compare sales and inventory changes by product and location.
  • Use forecasts of what you will sell to guide replenishment and transfers.
Customer history and repeat visits
  • Keep customer purchase and loyalty history together.
  • Run member pricing and targeted OTC offers, kept off medicine where your market forbids discounts.
  • Reach customers with offers through WhatsApp campaigns.
How it works

We run the stores. Small apps carry the licence.

Your ERP keeps the books. iVendNext runs the stores: the till, the stockroom, the price list, loyalty and returns. The pharmacy apps plug into the till and the back office, and your partner, or your own team, sets it up and builds on it. One till for the dispensary and the front of store. How it works, market by market

The licence, in a few small apps

The library keeps growing, and anything else your partner or your own team can build with the iVendNext partner kit.

In the App library

Apps for your pharmacy

Pharmacy counter rules

A prescription line is paid only against a valid prescription, sold only by a pharmacist whose licence is in date.

Expiry and recall

One press takes a recalled lot off every online till at once, and finds each store’s stock and the customers who bought it.

Age-restricted sale check

ID is asked at the scan of tobacco or alcohol, and Pay is refused without it.

Expiry markdown

Lots near their expiry date marked down by your own steps, on the lines where you may discount.

  • Move or return products before they become waste
  • Replenish using current stock and demand information
Tighter batch and expiry control

  • Use inventory and demand information to guide replenishment
Works with your ERP

Your ERP keeps the books. iVendNext runs the stores.

Your ERP knows what the stock is worth. The counter knows who dispensed what, to whom, and on whose prescription. iVendNext keeps that record beside your ERP, and sends the sales and returns back to it.

Pharmacy software questions

Pharmacy POS and retail software FAQs

Checkout with batch and expiry control, inventory, receiving, transfers and payments, and the rules your licence asks for at the counter: a valid prescription, a licensed pharmacist and a recall that reaches every online till. It should also work beside the dispensing system you already use.

Yes. Multi-store pharmacy POS software can give teams location-level stock visibility and support receiving, stock counts and transfers between stores and warehouses.

Yes. iVendNext has an open API. Your iVendNext partner, or your own developers, can link your dispensing system to the till and stock, so the two exchange what they need while POS, stock and store operations stay connected.

No. iVendNext is the retail layer beside your ERP. It connects to SAP Business One, SAP S/4HANA, Acumatica, NetSuite and Sage X3, and your partner connects any other ERP with the iVendNext partner kit. Your ERP keeps the books, and iVendNext runs the stores.
