All stock that is produce in-house has been allocated a minimum stock level based on historic sales, when this minimum stock level is reached it will set a trigger notifying that this product is required.

Once per week the Commercial team will create an order of all product that have reached the minimum stock level and the based on the pre-defined batch quantity, submitting this order will create the following on Pharmagroupdata:

• Production 'Job'
• Purchase order

Once the orders are created and on the Pharmagroupdata (PGD) Open Orders screen a production plan for the the following week will be created taking into account what needs to be produce, priority and staff availability. 

When each production is been completed the following should be done:
