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.

​
Medicine Purchase

Records medicine bought from a supplier for a batch.
Medicine purchase form

Recording a medicine purchase.

Line items: Product (a medicine), Unit, Quantity, Rate, Amount. The purchase adds to the batch’s medicine stock and records the medicine cost.

​
Medicine Transfer

Moves medicine between batches, or issues it from the godown.
Medicine transfer form

Recording a medicine transfer.

Line items: Product, Unit, Quantity — no rate (a stock movement, not a purchase).

​
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.
