Exporting your inventory report from Covetrus Pulse

Pulse is the cloud system Covetrus built out of eVetPractice, so if your practice still calls it eVetPractice you are in the right place. Being browser based, reports download straight to your machine with no print-to-file step. You need two things: what is on the shelf right now, and what sold over the last twelve months.

What you actually need

Four columns. Everything else in the report is optional, so do not spend time tidying the rest.

Item name
exactly as your system writes it
Quantity on hand
current units in stock
Unit cost
what you pay your distributor, not the client price
Units sold, one file per month
twelve separate monthly reports, not one twelve-month total

Two optional columns worth grabbing

If Covetrus Pulse offers these, leave them in. They cost nothing at export time and they let StockSolve compare what an item should have earned against what it actually booked, which is what separates a vaccine bundled into a wellness plan from a charge that was simply missed. Nothing to map: if the columns are in the file, the engine finds them.

Unit price
the client-facing sell price. Often called Price, Retail, Sell or Charge
Sales revenue
what the item actually booked. Often called Revenue, Extended, Sales or Amount

Which reports to look for in Covetrus Pulse

Report names shift between versions, so go by what the report contains rather than by an exact menu label. You are looking for two things:

  1. 1An inventory or stock report listing each item with quantity on hand and cost.
  2. 2A product or item sales report that can be run across a date range for units sold.

Things that trip people up on Covetrus Pulse

The help centre still lives under the eVetPractice domain, so searching for "eVetPractice inventory" often finds the Pulse article you actually want.
Pulse ties into Covetrus ordering, so an item cost may reflect the Covetrus catalog price rather than what you last paid another distributor. Check it against a recent invoice before trusting it.
Confirm the cost column is your purchase cost and not the client-facing price. Cloud reports frequently offer both.
