 Prior to mSupply v7.12, when ordering or reporting on suggested ordering, you could simply tell mSupply to ignore stock that was going to expiry in three or four months time. mSupply would then lower it's stock level and order according to usages. Prior to mSupply v7.12, when ordering or reporting on suggested ordering, you could simply tell mSupply to ignore stock that was going to expiry in three or four months time. mSupply would then lower it's stock level and order according to usages.
  
-However due to popular demand with mSupply v7.12 we have tried to do a better job of predicting stock wastage due to expiry. Using the consumption data that we have, we have travelled into the future and worked out the likely wastage stock. This page describes the workflow. +So previously if you asked mSupply to ignore stock that is likely to expire within the next six months while ordering or reporting, then mSupply would simply reduce the Stock on hand of the items by taking out the six months expiring stock as un-usable and then created a order based on the reduce stock. This is highly inaccurate as mSupply just removes the six months expiring stock instead of trying to workout if the stock can be dispensed in a timely manner.
