Pharma & Healthcare Field Sales

Pharma & Healthcare Field Sales Software for Ghana's Pharmacy and Chemical Shop Channel

A pharmacy counter in the morning, a chemical shop past the junction, a facility call where a brand still needs it: one app carries a rep through the beat. Batch and expiry get logged at the point of sale rather than reconstructed later, outlets sit on geo-tagged coordinates instead of a street address, and the route keeps working where signal on a northern beat drops out.

How It Works

What Keeps a Pharma Beat Running

Pharmacy and chemical shop calls carry most of the volume in this channel, and facility detailing sits alongside them rather than replacing them. The platform ties outlet coverage, point-of-sale batch capture and, where a brand needs it, tablet detailing onto one offline-ready cloud.

Geo-Tagged Outlet Beats

Pharmacies and chemical shops sit on saved coordinates rather than a written address, because day-to-day navigation still runs on landmarks in most towns. Beat planning sets call frequency by outlet tier and resequences automatically when a stop is added or skipped.

Batch and Expiry at the Counter

Batch number and expiry date get captured at the point of sale, alongside the order line, instead of being reconstructed later from a paper slip. Stock approaching expiry flags before it reaches the shelf, and any batch traces back to the outlet and visit that placed it.

Facility Detailing Where It Applies

For brands that also call on hospitals or clinics, the same platform runs product decks on a tablet, logs the visit outcome and records samples handed over, alongside coverage analytics that roll up by outlet type, region and GHS-denominated order value.

Complete Platform

Outlet Beats, Batch Capture, Detailing and Expense Handling

Geo-tagged coverage across the pharmacy and chemical shop channel, batch and expiry capture at the point of sale, tablet detailing where a brand needs it, and field expense handling in GHS, all on one offline-ready cloud.

Outlet Check-In and Selfie Match

A rep's GPS position is checked against the outlet's saved coordinates at check-in, and a selfie match confirms who is at the counter. Late marks and live location feed workforce dashboards for Sales Supervisors and Area Sales Managers.

Beat Frequency and Route Sequencing

Each pharmacy and chemical shop carries an outlet tier that sets call frequency, and route planning sequences the day's stops to cut time lost between calls in a dense southern belt or a thinner northern one.

Batch, Expiry and FDA-Aligned Records

Batch number, expiry, quantity and a digital signature are captured at every relevant stop, whether that is a pharmacy sale or a sample handed over during a facility call. The record supports what the Food and Drugs Authority expects under the Public Health Act, without any certification claim.

Field Expenses and Approvals in GHS

A rep files expense claims in GHS with fuel and travel receipts against call days. Approval routes through a Sales Supervisor, and leave handling covers Ghanaian public holidays with payroll-ready exports.

Apps that Run the System

One Cloud Record for Every Pharmacy and Facility Call

Orders, batch and expiry entries and detailing notes queue on the device and post once a connection returns, so an outlet visit on a weak-signal beat is never lost. Google Play and the Apple App Store carry the same cloud backend behind both apps.
