Medicines and vaccines reach a batch the same way feed does — through a Medicine Purchase (bought from a supplier) or a Medicine Transfer (moved from another batch or your godown). What’s actually administered to the birds is recorded separately as a Medication.

​
Purchase vs administer

A Medicine Purchase/Transfer changes stock. Actually giving medicine or a vaccine to the birds is recorded as a Medication under Daily Activity. Keeping them separate lets you track both what you bought and what you used.
