Pharmacy Management System

Abstract

This project illustrates the designing and implementation of a web-based Pharmacy management system. The primary aim is to improve accuracy and enhance safety and efficiency in the pharmaceutical store by minimizing issues that occur in day-to-day operations. Currently, they are using a manual system which is very hard in handling. Managing the stock with paper records based on the expiry dates and the quantity available in the stock are some major problems identified in the problem. The system intends to minimize the workload of the staff and increase the value of the business to gain competitive advantages in the pharmaceutical industry. The system allows different tasks for different users. They are admin, manager, salesman users who can be logging the system as different user roles to perform their functions separately. Admin has all privileges of the system. Creating users, generating reports for managerial decisions, manage employees are some admin tasks. In addition, the system will show a notification about expiry dates of medicine and stock ending details. It is easy to handle stock management through the software rather than working with paper records. Customers are the main asset of the business. So, the system will help to reduce the waiting time of the customers. The system is developed using CodeIgniter which is an open-source PHP web framework and MySQL database. Laravel supports the MVC architecture which is more efficient and attains the perfect design for the system. CSS, Bootstrap, JavaScript, Ajax are some other technologies used to develop this system.
