Usage

Running the Application

   python app/main.py

2. Inventory usage batch files from the ARRAY module need to be saved to the data/BATCH directory. The application will automatically detect these files and process them.
3. Once processed, an .HHT file will be created in the data/HHT directory.
4. Use the HHT menu in the MEDITECH MM module to process the .HHT file and import the supply information into the MM module.

Tray Icon

The application includes a system tray icon for managing settings, toggling the console, and viewing information.
