Find the medicine.
Search the NPRA-sourced repository by medicine name, brand or MAL registration reference. Choose the matching product instead of recreating its details by hand.
Add it to your clinic.
Bring the medicine into your location’s inventory from the clinic dashboard. The shared medicine information gives your team a head start.
Set the stock that belongs to you.
Record stock quantities, batches, expiry dates and prices. Set a minimum stock level so the team can see when available stock falls below it.
Manage the catalogue, stock receipts and minimum levels in the clinic dashboard. The Pharmacy terminal takes over at the counter, where the team confirms what the patient receives.
Medicine stock movementsWORKFLOW ILLUSTRATION
Start with stock you can account for.

CONTROL AT THE POINT OF SUPPLY
The Pharmacy terminal closes the handover.
Prescribing tells the team what is intended. Dispensing records what was supplied. The stock history lets your team follow the difference.
01
Expiry-aware allocation
Automatic allocation uses available, unexpired batches in earliest-expiry order. A selected batch is checked again when supply is confirmed. Expired stock remains visible for tracking and cannot be dispensed through this workflow.
02
Partial supply and recorded returns
Confirm a smaller supply when appropriate, then retain the outstanding prescription quantity. A return records the quantity, reason and restock decision separately from the original supply.
03
Minimum levels and stock visibility
Set a minimum stock level for each item and see when available stock falls below it. Review low stock, approaching expiry and batch history. Receipts, dispensing, returns and adjustments each leave a stock movement record.
SUPPLIED MEDICINE → OPEN BILL
Charge for the medicine the patient received.
Confirmed dispensing connects the supplied quantity and batch selling price to the visit's open bill. Your team can review the medicine lines alongside the consultation and other charges before collecting payment.
Is Watson’s medicine repository sourced from NPRA?
Yes. Watson’s repository contains over 28,000 registered pharmaceutical products sourced from the National Pharmaceutical Regulatory Agency (NPRA), under Malaysia’s Ministry of Health. The imported catalogue contains 28,214 unique registration references. Clinics can search by medicine name, brand or MAL reference and add matching products to their inventory without re-entering the shared details.
Can we set minimum stock levels for medicines?
Yes. Set a minimum stock level on an inventory item. Watson identifies low stock when the available quantity falls below that level, helping the team plan replenishment. The threshold does not automatically place a purchase order.
Where do we add medicines and manage stock?
Use the clinic dashboard to add medicines from the repository, receive stock and set prices, batches and minimum levels. The Pharmacy terminal focuses on the counter workflow: reviewing prescriptions, checking available stock, confirming dispensing and recording handovers and returns.
Does a prescription automatically reduce clinic stock?
No. Stock moves when the team confirms dispensing. A saved prescription and a confirmed supply remain distinct, so the stock record reflects what was handed over.
How does Watson choose which batch to dispense?
Automatic allocation uses available, unexpired stock in earliest-expiry order. The dispensing workflow also validates selected batches and available quantities when supply is confirmed.
Can we record partial dispensing and medicine returns?
Yes. The team can confirm a partial quantity and record returns against an earlier supply. A return includes a reason and an explicit decision about whether to restock. A stock return does not itself complete a payment refund.
Does dispensing add the medicine to the patient's bill?
Confirmed supply can add medicine lines to the visit's open bill using the selling prices of the supplied batches. The team reviews the bill before taking payment. A visit without an open bill needs the billing work to be handled separately.
Can we bring our existing medicine stock into Watson?
Opening stock can be assessed and mapped from a source workbook. The setup needs verified medicine units, quantities, prices and expiry information. Imported stock awaiting expiry confirmation stays out of dispensing until checked and released.
Is this designed for a clinic dispensary?
Yes. This page covers the prescribing, dispensing and inventory work inside the Watson clinic offering. The demo should use your clinic's medicine catalogue, roles and stock process to confirm the fit.
