Start of the Workflow/Process.
1. Fetch Current Inventory Levels
Retrieve existing stock levels for raw materials and active pharmaceutical ingredients (API) from the Inventory Data Model.
2. Retrieve Supplier Lead Times
Fetch historical lead time data for various suppliers to calculate potential delivery delays.
3. Calculate Safety Stock Level
Execute formula: (Average Daily Usage * Lead Time) + Safety Stock Buffer to determine minimum threshold.
4. Calculate Reorder Point
Execute formula: (Daily Demand * Lead Time) + Safety Stock to identify when a new purchase order is required.
5. Aggregate Total Warehouse Capacity
Sum the volume of all current stock entries to check against total warehouse storage capacity.
6. Calculate Average Supplier Performance Score
Calculate the average of all recent 'On-Time Delivery' ratings for a specific supplier.
7. Create Purchase Order
Generate a new entry in the Purchase Order Data Model when stock falls below the Reorder Point.
8. Update Stock Status
Update the 'Status' field of a specific batch entry to 'In Transit' or 'Quarantine' upon arrival.
9. Update Expiry Tracking
Update the 'Risk Level' field of a product batch based on the remaining shelf life.
10. Assign Quality Control Inspection
Create a task for the Lab Technician to perform a chemical composition test on new incoming batches.
11. Assign Logistics Dispatch
Create a task for the Logistics Manager to coordinate temperature-controlled transport for sensitive batches.
12. Create Audit Log Entry
Create a task for the Compliance Officer to review and sign off on the batch's regulatory documentation.
13. Notify Supplier of Purchase Order
Send an automated email to the supplier's procurement contact with the newly created Purchase Order details.
14. Alert: Temperature Deviation
Send an urgent email to the Quality Assurance team if sensor data indicates a breach in cold chain temperature limits.
15. Driver Delivery Alert
Send an SMS to the logistics driver with the delivery window and warehouse gate instructions.
16. Generate Monthly Supply Chain Efficiency Report
Create a comprehensive report summarizing lead time variances, stockout incidents, and supplier reliability.
17. Remove Expired Batch Records
Delete entries from the 'Active Inventory' model for batches that have passed their expiration date and been moved to disposal.
