For pharmacy groups on Minfos

Every store,
one pharmacy.

Each of your stores keeps its own Minfos database. Mortar joins them, so stock, special orders, clearance and sales read as one group, at head office and at the counter.

Out of stock Northside is out. Harbour holds 42.

A made-up group, so you can poke at it. Yours would show your own stores and every product you stock.

Why groups need it

Minfos runs each store. Mortar runs the space between them.

HAR Harbour Its own Minfos database
MKT Market St Its own Minfos database
NTH Northside Its own Minfos database
LKV Lakeview Its own Minfos database

Four stores, four databases, four versions of the truth. Mortar is the thin line that makes them one group.

01

Stock you can’t see

One store reorders a product that has sat unsold on another’s shelf for three months.

02

Orders that go missing

A customer’s special order lives on a sticky note, somewhere between the counter and head office.

03

Write-offs that didn’t have to be

Short-dated stock is thrown out in one store while another would have sold it in a week.

04

Targets in a spreadsheet

Sales against target arrives by email the next morning, when the day can no longer be saved.

The product

The jobs that fall between stores, done.

Don’t take our word for it. Everything below is live: click it, drag it, break it.

01  ·  Special orders

A customer’s order, never lost between stores.

One list for every special order in the group. Each has a status the counter and head office both see, so nobody has to ring around to find out where it is.

  • Taken at one store, collected at another, with both stores kept in the picture
  • A morning email of what is due today and what is running late
  • Every change kept in the order’s history, under a staff name

Short-dated stock, moved before it’s written off.

  • One register of short-dated and damaged stock for every store, by date
  • Transfers and write-offs created in the store’s Minfos, ready to check and send
  • A weekly count with a barcode scanner, on a phone

The questions head office keeps asking, already answered.

A

Deadstock

What has stopped selling in each store, what it cost, and which stores still sell it.

B

Low margin

The lines selling under the margin you expect, store by store.

C

Write-offs

What each store wrote off, by product and by supplier.

D

Stock on hand

The group’s whole catalogue with every store’s stock, as one spreadsheet.

E

Product history

Twelve months of any product’s sales, by store, beside its price and cost.

F

Shelf labels

A promotion’s labels queued in every store’s Minfos at once, ready to print.

How it works

Three steps, and none of them at the till.

  1. 1

    Connect your stores

    You approve the connection in writing, and Mortar links to each store’s Minfos. Nothing changes at the till.

  2. 2

    Let it load

    Each store’s catalogue and its last 400 days of sales load in the background, with progress you can watch.

  3. 3

    Invite your people

    A counter login for each store, personal logins for head office. Each one sees only the stores and sections you grant.

Built to be trusted

Made behind a counter, not in a boardroom.

Mortar wasn’t designed from a slide deck. It was built for one pharmacy group’s own stores, one real problem at a time, and it holds your data as carefully as it holds theirs.

3

pharmacies

Mortar grew up inside a working three-store pharmacy group, which has run its days on it ever since.

1,400+

automated tests

Every release is checked against them before it reaches a store.

1

database per group

Your group’s data sits in a database of its own, not in rows beside someone else’s.

  • Hosted in Australia
  • Yours to export, and deleted when you ask
  • Each login limited to its own stores
  • Every change recorded, with a name

Pricing

Per store, per month. That’s the price list.

One price for each store, with everything on this page included. We’re taking on a small number of founding groups first, and we’ll quote for yours on the walkthrough.

Questions

Does Mortar replace Minfos?

No. Minfos stays the system of record in every store, and your staff keep dispensing and selling in it. Mortar reads from Minfos and adds the group’s view on top. It writes back only what you ask it to: the stock transfers you raise from clearance, and the shelf labels you queue. Your staff still check and send each transfer in Minfos.

Who is it for?

Pharmacy groups with three or more stores on Minfos. With fewer, the gaps between stores are usually small enough to close with a phone call.

What do staff need at the counter?

A web browser. Each store shares a counter login, and staff type their name when they change something, so the history always says who. Owners and head office get logins of their own.

Who can see what?

Each login reaches only its own stores and the sections you grant it. A store sees its own orders and clearance. Head office sees the group.

Where is our data kept?

In Australia, in a database that belongs to your group alone. It stays yours: you can export it, and we delete it when you ask or when you leave. Special orders can reveal a customer’s medicines, so we handle them as health information.

Is Mortar made by Minfos?

No. Mortar is an independent product, built in a pharmacy group for pharmacy groups, that works with Minfos.
