Centralized management just got a whole lot easier.
Star-Link Enterprise Edition enables multi-store pharmacies to seamlessly communicate inventory information, sales transaction data, promotional events and more between stores.
One product file for all your stores.
Star-Link allows for centralized management of the product file for the entire chain. Pricing strategies can vary across regions or zones and can be controlled by headquarters. Depending on your pharmacy's strategy, the individual sites can be given partial or full control over the product file, or the system can be locked down with headquarters maintaining complete control. Whatever the business model, Star-Link has the flexibility to meet your requirements.


Seamless communication.
Star-Link communicates with any RMS POS system. Sites connect to Star-Link via an existing WAN or VPN. Real-time communication gives you up-to-the-minute sales history, inventory levels and transaction detail in each of your stores. If you find stores overstocked, you can use the Store Transfer feature on our pharmacy point of sale system to transfer inventory from one to another.
Cost-saving advantages.
Star-Link also incorporates centralized purchasing and receiving for companies looking to take advantage of economies of scale. The Star-Link warehouse feature allows stores to transmit orders to the warehouse for fulfillment, then forward the remainder of the order to the wholesaler for completion.
