Clinic Supply Reorder Agent

Supplies like gloves, syringes, prophy paste and test kits run out at bad times or expire unused on the shelf. Each week this agent reads stock counts and usage from the inventory sheet or system. It projects days of supply for each item against the schedule ahead, such as a busy flu week. It drafts a reorder list for items that will fall below lead time plus 5 days, and lists items expiring within 60 days to use first or return. When the supplier lists an item as back-ordered, it suggests only an approved alternate. A staff lead approves every order. After ordering, it tracks the delivery and compares it with the order, flagging missing or substituted items. For shortages it drafts a follow-up or claim to the supplier and adds them to the next reorder. Edge case: a back-ordered item gets an approved alternate instead of being skipped.
