Sunrise Pharmaceuticals? is a combined manual and computerised practice set for a wholesale complany that buys from major pharmaceutical enterprises and sells mainly to chemists. Although it involves a private company and the application of international accoutning standards, there are not complicated corporate type transactions included within.
