Getting started
What PharmaBells is and who sees what
The web console, the mobile app, and what each role in your pharmacy can do.
PharmaBells runs a retail pharmacy end to end: billing at the counter, stock with batches and expiry, purchases from suppliers, customers and credit, GST reports, staff and licences. It comes in two parts that share one account and one set of data.
| Web console | Mobile app | |
|---|---|---|
| Where | Any browser, erp.pharmabells.com | Android and iPhone |
| Best for | Setting things up, long forms, reports, settings | The counter, the stockroom, checking in from anywhere |
| Billing | Yes | Yes, works offline and syncs later |
| Purchases | Create and receive | Receive deliveries |
| Settings | All | Links back to the web for company settings |
Everything you do in one place shows in the other within seconds.
Roles
Every user has a role. The role decides which menus they see and what they can change. The owner can also make custom roles.
| Role | Can do |
|---|---|
| Owner (administrator) | Everything, for every store: settings, staff, billing, subscription, closing the account |
| Store manager | Run one store end to end: bills, stock, purchases, staff attendance, expenses, reports |
| Pharmacist | Bill, manage medicines and batches, adjust stock, see reports |
| Cashier | Bill, take payments, returns, customers; see stock |
| Inventory manager | Medicines, batches, suppliers, purchase orders, transfers, stock audits |
| Accountant | Sales, purchases, payments, expenses, GST and reports; nothing at the counter |
If a menu you expect is missing, your role does not include it. Ask your administrator rather than sharing a login.
Stores
A pharmacy can have one store or many. Stock, bills and attendance belong to a store; medicines, customers, suppliers and settings are shared. A user can be given one store or several, and switches between them from the top bar on the web or from Profile on the phone.
