Maintain your ingredient library

Your pharmacy needs a clean ingredient library so products inherit the right regulatory flags. This tutorial walks you through reviewing the catalog, finding an existing API, and adding a new one.

1. Open Ingredients and read the KPIs

Go to Catalog → Classification → Ingredients. The five KPI cards show Total ingredients, Global library, Tenant-specific, Controlled, and Schedule G counts. L1 admins see a dismissible Admin access notice explaining global edit rights.

Ingredients overview with KPI strip and table. — KPI strip summarizes library scope and regulatory load.

2. Search for an existing ingredient

In the table toolbar, type a name (e.g. Amoxicillin) in Search ingredients by name or description…. Matching rows filter instantly. Use All / Global / Tenant tabs or the status dropdown to narrow further.

Ingredients table filtered to Amoxicillin Trihydrate. — Search + scope/status filters.

3. Add a new ingredient

Click Add Ingredient in the page header. Fill Name and Description, set Active, and toggle Controlled substance or Schedule G if applicable. L1 admins can mark an ingredient as Global so all tenants inherit it.

Add New Ingredient dialog with name, description, and regulatory toggles. — Add dialog — regulatory flags drive downstream Rx rules.

Click Save. Success toast: Ingredient created successfully. The new row appears in the table with the correct scope pill and regulatory badges.

You have now reviewed library health, searched the catalog, and added an ingredient with the right flags.
