Where drugs are proceeding in large quantity, it is always a difficult task to maintain the drugs in the ares of sales, stock control expiration monitory and raw material composition composition. a availability of drugs should be readily ascertained and reorder level be timely and orderly, sales balance will be managed effectively. All these compelled the researcher to take up this task and make the general society to benefit immensely form the reorder level.
− To produce a system that will be action to produce a system that will effectively monitor drugs sales and customer services and comfortably maintain an accurate account states.
