How to find and clear expiring medicines

1. Open the Expiry screen

Click Expiry in the left menu. The tiles at the top show what is Expired now, what expires Within 30 days and what expires later, each with its value at cost.

Change Show stock expiring within to look further ahead.

2. Sell the near-expiry stock first

The list is grouped by how soon each batch expires. Within 30 days · sell these first is the group to act on now. The Counter already sells the batch that expires first, so these go out with normal bills.

Tip: On Inventory, the Expiring tab shows the same medicines inside your full stock list.

3. Take expired batches out of stock

Next to an expired batch, choose one of the two actions:

• Return: the batch leaves stock and no loss is recorded. Use it when the supplier takes it back.
• Write off: the batch leaves stock and its value at cost is recorded as a loss.

Watch out: Return only takes the batch out of your stock. Barkat does not track a credit from the supplier for it. Only the owner or a Secondary admin can return or write off.

Done: Expired stock is off your shelves in Barkat, and the Counter can no longer sell it.
