1. Introduction:
The Pharmacy Management System (PMS) is a software solution
developed in C# and SQL Server that automates the day-to-day operations of a
pharmacy. It simplifies key tasks such as inventory tracking, billing and sales
management. This project aims to help pharmacies improve efficiency, reduce
manual errors and deliver better customer service.

2. Existing System / Related Works:


Many pharmacies rely on manual or outdated methods to manage their
operations, which leads to:
 Manual billing errors.
 Lack of real-time inventory updates.
 Inefficient tracking of expired medicines and stock levels.
 Time-consuming sales processing.
While commercial pharmacy systems exist, they may not be affordable or
customizable for small to mid-sized pharmacies. This project focuses on creating
a cost-effective and practical solution.

3. Proposed System:

3.1 Scope:
The Pharmacy Management System will include the following
functionalities:
 Inventory Management: Add, update and delete medicine details,
including name, batch, expiry date and stock quantity.
 Billing System: Generate sales invoices, including itemized medicine
details, prices and total amounts.
 User Management: Role-based authentication for administrators and
cashiers.
 Sales Tracking: Store records of completed sales with date and time
stamps.
 Search and Filter Options: Quickly search medicines by name or category
and filter them by expiry date or availability.
 Database Integration: Maintain and retrieve data through SQL Server for
secure and efficient operations.

3.2 Proposed System Modules:

1. Inventory Management Module:


 Track medicine stock levels.
 Manage expiry dates and batch details.
 Update medicine information (name, price, and stock quantity).
2. Billing and Sales Module:
 Generate itemized sales bills.
 Calculate discounts and apply taxes.
 Store sales data for record-keeping.
3. User Authentication Module:
 Role-based login for admin and cashier users.
 Password-protected access to secure system data.
4. Search and Filter Module:
 Allow quick medicine search by name, category, or expiry date.
 Enable easy identification of low-stock or expired medicines.
5. Reporting Module:
 Generate sales and inventory reports for better decision-making.

3.3 Advantages of the Proposed System:


 Error Reduction: Automates billing and inventory management to
minimize human errors.
 Time-Saving: Accelerates sales processing and report generation.
 Scalability: Designed to handle increased data as the pharmacy grows.
 User-Friendly: Intuitive design that simplifies operation for staff
members.
 Cost-Effective: A robust yet budget-friendly alternative to commercial
pharmacy systems.

3.4 Limitations / Disadvantages:


 Relies on proper database backups to avoid data loss.
 Requires staff training to use the system effectively.
 Needs regular updates to adapt to evolving business needs.

3.5 Applications:
 Retail pharmacies for managing sales and inventory.
 Clinics and hospital pharmacies for medicine tracking and billing.
 Pharmaceutical stores to handle customer orders efficiently.

3.6 SDG Goals:


This project aligns with SDG Goal 3 (Good Health and Well-being) by
improving access to medicines and ensuring efficient pharmacy operations.

4. Hardware / Software Requirements:


Hardware Requirements:
 Processor: Intel Core i3 or higher.
 RAM: 4GB or more.
 Storage: 20GB free disk space.
 Display: 1366x768 resolution or higher.
Software Requirements:
 Operating System: Windows 7 or later.
 Development Environment: Microsoft Visual Studio (2019 or later).
 Framework: .NET Framework 4.5 or higher.
 Database: SQL Server.
