For chemists, distributors, C&F agents & pharmacy chains

Pharmacy and pharma distribution software in Kolkata & across West Bengal

Batch and expiry tracking, Schedule H registers, GST e-invoicing and secondary sales reporting — running on SwilERP and Unisolve, set up and supported from Kolkata, with sub-dealers right across West Bengal. Over 5,000 businesses run on software we've installed, and pharma is where we started.

What we set up, by the kind of business you run

The pharma trade is not one business — a counter, a godown and a C&F operation each need something different. Here is what we put in for each.

RETAIL CHEMIST

Pharmacy & medical shop

Fast billing at a busy counter, with the right batch picked automatically and expiry checked before the medicine leaves the shop.

  • Salt and substitute search when a brand is out of stock
  • Batch-wise billing with expiry validation
  • Schedule H / H1 and narcotic register entries
  • Credit customers, doctor-wise and patient-wise sales
  • Short-book and automatic reorder suggestions
  • GST bills with your drug licence details
DISTRIBUTOR · STOCKIST

Pharma distribution

Purchase from companies, sell to hundreds of retailers, and keep schemes, margins and outstanding under control.

  • Scheme, free-goods and discount handling on purchase and sale
  • PTR / PTS / MRP margin structures
  • Batch-wise godown stock with expiry ageing
  • Retailer credit limits and outstanding control
  • Van and route-wise secondary sales
  • Order collection from the field, delivered to billing
C&F AGENT

Carrying & forwarding

Stock that belongs to your principals, kept separate and reported the way each company expects it.

  • Principal-wise stock segregation and consignment handling
  • Statements and stock reporting to each principal
  • Breakage, expiry and claim tracking until credit is received
  • Secondary sales tracking down to the retailer
  • Branch and depot transfers with full trail
  • D1 / D2 and statutory return data
MULTI-STORE

Pharmacy chains

Several shops run as one business — with stock, purchase and profitability visible across all of them.

  • Live stock visibility across every branch
  • Inter-branch transfer of stock on request
  • Central purchase with store-wise indent
  • Store-wise sales, margin and stock reporting
  • Role-based access so staff see only their own store
  • Cloud edition for access from anywhere

The pharma-specific things it handles

General billing software does not know what a Schedule H drug is, or what happens when a batch expires. These do.

Batch & expiry tracking — every item tracked batch-wise from purchase to sale, with near-expiry alerts in time to return stock.
Schedule H, H1 & narcotic registers — recorded with prescriber and patient details, printable when an inspector asks.
Drug licence details on invoices — your DL numbers and your buyer's, carried on the invoice format.
GST & e-invoicing — HSN codes, e-invoice and e-way bill generation, and clean data for returns.
Expiry & breakage claims — returns booked against the original batch, claims tracked until the credit note lands.
Schemes & free goods — company schemes applied correctly on purchase, and passed on how you choose.
Secondary sales tracking — visibility right down to the retailer, for the reporting principals demand.
Rate structures — PTR, PTS and MRP handled properly, so margins are never guesswork.
Outstanding & credit control — party-wise ageing, credit limits, and collection follow-up.
200+ built-in reports — stock, sales, purchase, margin and statutory reports without building anything.

Which Swil product fits you

We are a SWIL Authorized Platinum Partner, so we fit the product to the business rather than selling one thing to everybody.

Most pharmacies and distributors

SwilERP

The main system — billing, batch-wise inventory, GST and reporting, on desktop for full offline control or on the cloud for access from anywhere. Scales from one counter to a multi-branch chain.

Distribution & C&F operations

Unisolve

SWIL's long-established wholesale and distribution product, with the workflows stockists, distributors and branch-heavy operations rely on — including schedule-drug compliance and D1/D2 reporting.

At the counter & in the field

SwilPOS

Billing and order-taking on a phone or tablet — and it works batch-wise, the way pharma has to. Salesmen raise orders at retailer counters, staff bill from the shop floor, receipts and outstanding are recorded on the spot, and everything syncs both ways with your live SwilERP data using the same users and masters as the desktop.

Godown & warehouse

SwilSORT

SwilERP's complete warehouse management, run from the floor on SwilSORT — goods receipt with automatic putaway suggestions, bin and rack level location tracking so any item is found instantly, optimised pick lists that cut walking time, packing and dispatch, returns and damaged-goods handling, and throughput, utilisation and accuracy reporting. Barcode scanning runs right through receiving, putaway, picking and dispatch, across unlimited warehouses with inter-warehouse transfers.

Also available: SwilBA for live business figures on your phone. See the full product range →

Questions pharma businesses ask us

The things we are asked most often before a changeover.

Does the software handle Schedule H and H1 drug registers?

Yes. Schedule H, H1 and narcotic sales can be recorded with the prescriber and patient details the rules require, and the register can be printed or exported when a drug inspector asks for it.

Can it track batch numbers and expiry dates?

Yes — every item is tracked batch-wise with its expiry date, from purchase through to sale. You get near-expiry alerts so stock can be returned to the company in time, and billing picks the correct batch automatically.

Can I manage expiry returns and breakage claims to companies?

Yes. Expiry and breakage returns are recorded against the original purchase batch, and claims raised on companies can be tracked until the credit note is received, so nothing is written off by mistake.

Do you support C&F operations with principal-wise stock?

Yes. Stock can be held and reported principal-wise, so consignment goods belonging to each company stay separate, with the statements and claim reporting your principals expect.

Can I run several pharmacy branches on one system?

Yes. Multi-store setups run with live stock visibility across branches, inter-branch transfers, central purchase and store-wise reporting. On the cloud edition your branches work from anywhere.

Can you move my data from my current software?

In most cases yes. We handle data migration as part of setup — item masters, parties, outstanding balances and stock. Tell us what you are running now and we will confirm what can be carried over before you commit to anything.

Do you cover my area outside Kolkata?

Yes. Beyond Kolkata, Howrah and Hooghly we work through a network of sub-dealers covering the whole of Midnapore including Egra and Contai, plus Berhampore, Purulia, Bankura, Siliguri, Jalpaiguri, Alipurduar, Cooch Behar and the rest of West Bengal. Sales and setup visits are made on site; day-to-day support is delivered online, so help reaches you in minutes rather than waiting for someone to travel.

If we switch, do we lose the data in our current software?

No. We move it across. Whatever you are running at the moment, your masters — customers, suppliers and items — along with your transaction history can be brought into SwilERP, so you go live with your own business already loaded rather than an empty system and a year of history in a filing cabinet. Bringing the data over is part of the setup we do, not a separate project you pay for later.

Is the billing GST compliant with e-invoicing?

Yes — GST-ready invoicing with HSN codes, e-invoice and e-way bill generation, and the returns data your accountant needs, with drug licence numbers carried on the invoice format.
