Ok so up until this point, min max stuff has pretty much just been in my head. However I am wanting to label the shelves with this information.
However I am running into issues on how I should label slow moving tablets, so I was wondering how everyone else does it.
Do you for example say redorder 1 bottle/box at 10 tablets or put the reorder point at 0 and the max at 1?
In the past I just typically reorder when there is a few left in the bin since we have the items stocked in various omnicell's so we still have about a day's supply.
Currently we have a carousel and a perpetual inventory system but when I used shelf labels I labeled each item in the following way: 10/1x100 or however many were in a box/bottle. I found, through trial and error that this method, used consistantly, worked best. I hope this helps.
Hi, back when we had shelves we used the Cardinal tags to label the shelf. Then we'd write the reorder point. So, if the level was 6 boxes the tag in the corner would say 6. If it was a slow moving item we would label it PRN. The Cardinal tags were nice because it has the name of the product, package size, NDC number and cardinal number on it.
