Meet Sharma Distributors, a mid-sized pharma stockist from Indore.
They were losing money silently every month. Hereβs what was going wrong:
β Old stock kept expiring β no one flagged it π No dashboard to see which batch is expiring soon π§ββοΈ Managers were manually tracking inventory in Excel π€― Miscommunication between sales and inventory teams πΈ Products nearing expiry were still being billed without discount π§Ύ Returns were messy β no system to handle expired stock from retailers
Result? Goods worth over βΉ2.1 lakh were expiring every month!
π‘ The Solution
We stepped in with a simple goal: “Expiry Control = Profit Recovery.” Hereβs exactly how the ERP system solved it:
1οΈβ£ Step 1: Activated Stock Dashboard β
β with batch expiry alerts
β Now they saw expiring stock 15 days in advance
2οΈβ£ Step 2: Set up Warehouse Transfer Logs β
β Older stock was auto-prioritized across retail locations
3οΈβ£ Step 3: Used Sales Module + Discount Alerts β
β Products nearing expiry showed auto-suggestions for clearance rates
β β5 Products Expiring This Weekβ alert every Monday 9AM
π The Result
π― Expiry loss dropped from βΉ2.4L to just βΉ30K π¦ Old stock moved faster with clearance pricing π± WhatsApp alerts ensured zero miscommunication π₯ No extra team needed β existing staff managed better π Month-end reporting became easier & faster

“Now itβs hard to even imagine working without a system. Whatβs visible is whatβs selling!”
