Digital Workflow
Step into the digital era of retail pharmacy.
Is your pharmacy drowning in paper? Is managing wait times a challenge? Would you like to improve the overall efficiency and accuracy of how your pharmacy operates?
From intake to pick-up, Digital Workflow manages how prescriptions move through the pharmacy. Whether you choose to benefit from the accuracies of stock bottle barcode scanning, or eliminate excess paper with thermal printing and electronic prescription verification, our easy to configure Digital Workflow module can be tailored to any type of pharmacy.
The future of pharmacy doesn’t include managing baskets… get behind the change today.
