E-DRUG: Re: Drug inventory control software (contd)

E-drug: Re: Drug inventory control software (contd)
----------------------------------------------------------

I refer to the message from Erik Schouten when he reports
"There are examples of medical stores that have purchased these
packages for small and medium sized enterprises and the
experiences are positive." I would like to hear more about
these examples.

We are installing a commercial accounting/stock management software (Exact)
in Rwanda. Since april 1997 this software is already operational in Goma -
R.D. Congo. In the next days I'll try to explain why we have chosen this
software and our experience with it. When I was still general manager of a
central medical store (1987-1993) we installed also a commercial software
package which was far from sufficient for the needs (the french software Saari).
