Frequently asked questions

01Where is the DairyLogs medicine store?

Health → Medicines at /dashboard/health/medical-store lists catalog stock, expiry, average cost, and value.

02How is medicine value calculated?

From on-hand quantity and average cost on the inventory ledger (WAC-style valuation), flagged when below threshold.

03Why should treatments link to medicine SKUs?

So stock decreases, expiry stays visible, and withdrawal decisions stay tied to the actual product used.
