Abstract
The current disclosure relates to systems and methods for prescription stock management at one or more pharmacies in a pharmacy chain. The system initializes and trains a stock management model using machine learning techniques in order to calculate outputs such as a minimum stocked number, a maximum stocked number, and an order amount for at least one prescription item. The system then monitors the inventory of the prescription item, and transmits an order, based on the order amount, for the prescription item if the stock of the prescription item is less than the minimum stocked number.
