Abstract
Systems and methods for order fulfilment and product handling are described. The system includes an application configured to identify products included in an order from a pharmacy to a wholesaler that can be bundled based on one or more criteria. Those products are retrieved from stock by the wholesaler and packaged together for shipment to the pharmacy. Operators at the pharmacy directly induct the bundled products into a product-handling system which accumulates and collates the products and other non-bundled products with respect to a patient order. The product-handling system may apply labels to the products and places the products associated with the patient order into a single package for shipment to the patient. The bundled products are directly inducted into the product-handling system without being placed in stock at the pharmacy.
