Install it where the data should live
Regnum ships as a single Windows installer. It sets up the application and its database on the machine you choose: a reception PC, the back-office desktop, or a small server if you have one. Nothing is provisioned in the cloud, and nothing phones home to work.
- Runs on ordinary hardware, with no dedicated server required
- Other staff reach it from their own browsers over your local network
- Works with the internet down; a facility's day should not depend on a link
Tell it about your practice
A first-run wizard asks the handful of questions that shape everything else: how many sites, what you dispense, who works here and what each of them should be able to see. It takes about ten minutes and can be changed later without a migration.
- Create sites or storerooms and name them the way staff already do
- Add users and assign one of four roles
- Set your currency, financial year and stock categories
Import the file you already keep
Upload your stock list and whatever else you keep: purchases, suppliers, batch numbers and expiry dates, consumption history, stock received, adjustments, costs, and lead times if you record them. Regnum reads the columns, shows you its interpretation, and asks you to confirm the mapping once. Rows it cannot parse are listed individually with the reason, so you fix them in place rather than starting over. Nothing about how you currently record stock has to change.
Accepts
CSV, XLSX, and exports from most dispensing systems
Reports
Rows imported, rows skipped, duplicates merged
Keeps
Every upload versioned, so any import can be rolled back
Let the models learn your normal
With history loaded, Regnum builds a consumption profile per item: the ordinary week, the seasonal shape, the items that move in bursts. From that it derives reorder points, expiry risk and the first forecasts. If your history is short, it says so and starts conservative.
- Twelve months of history gives a strong profile; three months gives a usable one
- Forecasts refresh as new movement is recorded, with no monthly rebuild
- You can override any suggestion, and the override is remembered
The week, as it actually runs
Most days, Regnum is a glance. The dashboard shows whether anything needs attention; if it does, the alert links straight to the item and the action. Once a week someone runs the refill suggestions and turns them into an order. Once a month the finance export goes to the bookkeeper.
| When | Who | What they do |
|---|---|---|
| Every morning | Whoever opens up | Glance at the dashboard; clear any red alerts |
| During the day | Staff | Record movement as stock is used or received |
| Weekly | Manager | Review refill suggestions, place the order |
| Monthly | Manager | Export finance bundle; review waste and idle stock |
| Quarterly | Owner | Compare sites, revisit categories that keep expiring |
The practical stuff
If yours is not here, ask us directly. We answer these ourselves.
No. The installer handles the database and the application together. If you want other computers in the practice to reach it, that is one network setting, and we will walk you through it on a call.
Regnum takes scheduled backups to a location you nominate: an external drive, a network share, or your own cloud folder. Restoring is a single step, and we recommend testing it once so you know it works before you need it.
Yes. Each site runs its own copy and an optional sync gives head office a combined view with facility comparison. Sites keep working normally if the link between them is down.
Stock visibility and alerts work from the first import. Forecasting starts producing numbers within days if you brought history with you, and sharpens over the first two or three months as live movement accumulates. How accurate those forecasts are is a question we are answering with measurement rather than assertion. See how we score them.
Pricing is being finalised ahead of general release. Because Regnum runs on your own hardware there is no per-seat cloud cost baked in, and early-access practices get preferential terms. Ask us and we will tell you plainly where it is landing.
Always, and in standard formats. It is your database on your machine. Any screen that shows a table can export it, and the full dataset can be dumped whenever you like.
