GRN checks, vendor approval workflows & COA attachment.

Quarantine/Release workflows (link to QC results).

FEFO/FIFO stock rotation and expiry alerts.

Cold-chain monitoring (temp/humidity sensors + alerts).

Automated pick/issue to production with interlocks (can't issue if not QA released).

Workflow

Typical Workflow

01

Goods arrival → scan QR, create GRN → attach vendor COA and sampling request.

02

QC samples logged into LIMS and linked back to GRN; material placed in quarantine.

03

QC release updates Inventory to 'available'; MES can then issue material.

04

Warehouse manages picking by FEFO, and temperature records are attached to each movement for GMP audit.

Integrations & Compliance

Integrate with LIMS (COA/ROA), MES (issue), ERP (financial stock), and IoT sensors (cold chain).

Compliance: GMP warehouse rules, serialization/traceability (GS1), GDP for distribution.

Artificial Intelligence

AI in Action

PharmaCTRL's AI engine predicts stock depletion rates, alerts for potential expiry risks, and even suggests redistribution between plants to avoid wastage. Predictive analytics help balance safety stock levels with lean inventory goals.
