  1. Include a time stamp with date and time so that we know when we've printed the label for deliveries and so that we know the the label is the most up to date label.

  2. At the moment, a patient linked closed account shows no balance/credit limit in the debtor tile. If the debtor tile is opened, there is no clear indicator that the linked account is closed.
    Please include words "Closed account" instead of leaving the debtor tile blank OR include an account status "Open/Closed" in the opened Debtor form

  3. The order in which 30-day and 60-day options are displayed on the drug selection screen differs depending on the script type.

    Example: Perindopril 10mg

    When the script type is set to PBS, the list shows:

    9008D Qty 30 (30-day script)

    13555K Qty 60 (60-day script)

    When the script type is set to Non-PBS, the list shows:

    13555K Qty 30 (60-day script)

    9008D Qty 30 (30-day script)

    If a user scans a PBS script and for whatever reason, is retrieved as Non-PBS, they may manually select the top line assuming it’s the 30-day option. After changing the script type back to…

  4. When I get a phone call or interruption during dispensing, I currently have to Esc out of the current patient profile and I lose all the work I have done up until that point and then have to restart dispensing from scratch. With other dispensing softwares they can open a new tab to search a patient (like a web browser) and then come back and pick up on the dispensing where they left off before the interruption. Why can't we have this feature in Fred Dispense Plus?

  5. I'd like to be able to open a receipt for a dispensed item
    In Script Audit, I'd like an option to View and Print the receipt. I want to be able to see what else was purchased at the same time.

  6. Would like patient name to print in bold on small label on the top right side (small duplicate label). It is useful to use this sticker to label the baskets to easily identify them on the shelf.

  7. In my script there is an option to toggle cals on dispensing automatically such as have with food where relevant and discard after 28 days etc where relevant. It would be good if cals could be classified and we can toggle the ones we want on there by default such as toggle all discard cals or toggle food requirements etc

  8. Filter e-scripts and paper scripts separately. allows you to DOT dispense e-scripts easily without having to bring out and paper files. then you can dispense any paper/trick scripts in a different run.

    just add the option to column chooser. this column already exists in the list of scripts report

  9. In Fred Classic, the address labels printed a small patient barcode on the top left thin label of the address label. We use this barcode to stick on to dose administration aids, then scan these in dispense to search for the patient (as an ID check when patients are collecting their DAA). Dispense Plus doenst currently print this barcode, is this a feature we can turn on?

  10. Would it be possible to consider adding “Last Dispensed” and “SIG/Instructions” columns to the MedViewFlow queue?

    The main benefit would be having enough information directly on the MedViewFlow screen to determine why an item has been flagged following AutoDispense, particularly when an “early” dispensing error occurs or there is a synchronisation issue.

    For example, a patient may be taking escitalopram 20 mg with directions of 2 mane daily. If the medication is dispensed after 14 days rather than 21 days, this may be appropriate based on the patient’s directions, but Fred Dispense can still generate an “early” dispensing error. If…

  11. The system is not able automatically apply the override defaults for certain items thus we are having to manually override the price. Allow the price to be automatically applied so it is has a more efficient work flow (so many extra unnecessary steps to just adjust the price) 😒

  12. When in a particular resident/patient the specific prescriber/facility is not showing up automictically but rather we are having to search them to find the information through the lists menu. Make it similar to Fred Classic

  17. Own Brand Drugs (OBDs) are required by some Third Party Packing software to ensure the accurate dispensing and packing of over-the-counter medications. The current process requires users to create each OBD item individually via the OBD form, followed by ongoing manual reviews to maintain accurate Cost and Retail pricing.

    Introducing an automated solution, such as an Excel import into Fred Dispense Plus or a synchronisation option that allows Fred Office Plus data to flow directly into Dispense, would significantly improve both safety and efficiency. As much of the required data already exists within Fred Office, automation would eliminate repetitive data…

  18. When finalcheck is accidentally launched from a dispense tech initial, I am prompted to login using Pharmacist initial instead. This makes sense however, I then need to press F10 to launch finalcheck again. In this situation, please launch me directly into finalcheck once I'm logged in as a pharmacist.

  20. E.g. a repeat interval for drugs such as antidepressants or S4 monitored drugs, and script expiry for things like vet prescriptions (there is currently no way to change these to an expiry of 6 months)
