Registrations, permits and fridge checks for every pharmacy, on one register.

A pharmacy has to keep pharmacist and technician registrations, the pharmacy permit, controlled-substance registrations and daily cold-chain checks current at the same time. ExpiryEdge records each with its expiry or due date, document and owner, reminds the right person at 90, 60, 30 and 7 days, and runs daily and periodic routines as SOP checklists with a timestamped record.

Quick answer

Pharmacies track pharmacist registrations, controlled drug licences and fridge calibration by keeping each on a record with its due date, document and owner. ExpiryEdge holds registrations and CE against each pharmacist and technician, permits and controlled-substance registrations against each store, and logger calibration as a recurring item. Reminders go out at 90, 60, 30 and 7 days; daily temperature checks run as SOP checklists with a timestamped sign-off.

Pharmacists in charge and superintendents

Answer for the premises, the controlled-substance registrations and the people on duty, and need the evidence ready for an inspector.

Pharmacists and technicians

Get their own reminders for registration renewal, CE and immunization certification, and upload the new certificate to their record.

Store and operations managers

Run the daily fridge check, the equipment contracts and the routine paperwork, with checklists that show what was done and by whom.

Multi-store chains and groups

See every store on one screen, compare which ones are behind, and give each store access to its own records only.

How it works

Credentials, registrations and routines, each tracked the way they fail

Pharmacist and technician credentials
Registrations and CE held against each person

Renewal cycles, CE hours and technician certification rules are set by each state board or national regulator. Hold each registration against the person with the certificate attached, attach CE certificates to the same record, and send reminders to the holder and the pharmacist in charge, starting 90 days before the date.

Daily routines
Fridge temperature checks as a checklist, not a clipboard

Turn the daily cold-chain routine into an SOP checklist: read the minimum, maximum and current temperature, record it, reset the thermometer, and escalate an excursion to the pharmacist in charge. Each step has an owner and a timestamp. Logger calibration certificates sit on their own recurring record with the certificate attached.

Group people, permits and routines by store. Each pharmacist in charge sees their own store; the superintendent or head office sees every store, filtered by what expires in the next 30, 60 or 90 days and how far each checklist has progressed. When a pharmacist moves store, their responsibilities move to the new owner in one click.

Frequently asked questions

Keep each item on a record with its due date, document and owner, and attach it to the right thing: registrations to the pharmacist, controlled-substance registrations and licences to the store, calibration to the fridge or logger. Reminders should start early enough to complete renewal paperwork or book a calibration, typically 90 days out. ExpiryEdge sends reminders at 90, 60, 30 and 7 days and escalates to the superintendent or owner if a date passes. Which registrations and licences apply depends on your country and state, so confirm them with your regulator.

Create a record for each technician's registration or certification, with the certificate attached, its expiry date and any CE requirement. Reminders go to the technician and the pharmacist in charge, so both know when renewal is due. Filter by store to see who is valid, expiring or expired before the rota is set. Some jurisdictions require a state registration as well as a national certification, so a technician may have two records with two dates. Check the requirements with your state board or regulator.

Track the pharmacy permit and each controlled-substance registration as separate records per store, because they are issued by different authorities and usually renew on different dates. Store the registration number, expiry date and certificate on each, assign an owner, and set the first reminder early enough to complete the renewal and any state registration the federal one depends on. ExpiryEdge reminds the owner at 90, 60, 30 and 7 days and escalates if the date passes. It does not file renewals for you; confirm current requirements with your state board and the DEA.

Set the daily check up as an SOP checklist: record the current, minimum and maximum temperature, reset the thermometer, and follow the excursion procedure if a reading is out of range. Each run has an owner and a timestamp, so you can show an inspector who checked and when. Calibration is a separate recurring record per logger or thermometer, with the calibration certificate attached and a reminder before it is due. Follow the temperature ranges and calibration intervals set by your regulator, the vaccine program and the manufacturer.

Group every person, permit, registration and checklist by store. Each pharmacist in charge sees their own store; the superintendent or head office sees every store, filtered by what expires in the next 30, 60 or 90 days and how far each store has got with its daily checklists. Pharmacists who cover several stores keep one record for their personal credentials. When someone leaves or moves store, their responsibilities are reassigned in one click, and the reminder sequence continues.

Keep the evidence on the record it belongs to. Registrations, permits, calibration certificates and checklist runs should each carry their document and a timestamp, so the history is complete without gathering paper. When an inspector or auditor asks, filter by store and export current status and history in CSV, PDF or XLSX. ExpiryEdge keeps a timestamped trail of every reminder, renewal and sign-off, which answers both whether something is current now and whether it was current on a past date.
