Medication Direction (SIGs) Typing Guideline changes required for Numerals and verbs
New Pharmacy Students and Pharmacists are being encouraged to use the National standard for labelling dispensed medicines from July 2021 (located: https://www.safetyandquality.gov.au/publications-and-resources/resource-library/national-standard-labelling-dispensed-medicines) for clear and consistent labeling.
With the Fred Dispense Plus SIGs, these standards are unable to be followed easily. When a number is type it is expressed as a word not as an numeral.
The standards are recommended change to expressing Numbers as numerals and administration verbs. Examples of changed we would like implemented based on this National Standard

Automatically display generic search when eRx is script is dispensed by brand
When and eRx script is scanned and is a brand it would save time and be more efficient for the generic search window to be displayed. In most cases the brand dispensed prior is not the same at the next store therefore having this window display will save time and reduce dispensing errors.

Continued Dispensing Printing
Toggle Yes/No if you want to print out the Continued Dispensing Consumer Declaration and Prescriber Notification Form.
No other dispensing system requires this, probably better to remove altogether, as its a waste of paper.

Remove Scripts from Holding/Deleted Report Once Reclaimed
Remove scripts that been put on hold from the Holding/Deleted Scripts report when they have been successfully reclaimed. At the moment scripts remain listed as 'on hold' in this report even though they have been reclaimed. This makes it difficult to determine which scripts have and have not been reclaimed when going through this report.

half quantities
Is it possible to allow halves in the quantity section. We dispense methadone liquid and are unable to enter exact doses prescribed such as 11.5mL, we also do Diazepam reductions and it would be good to be able to have the label print the quantity being packed e.g 1.5 tablets.

Be able to make a document for 'custom sigs' on a template that can be imported at different pharmacy locations
To improve consistency between different pharmacies, to be able to generate a document that has a list of 'custom sigs' and their directions that can be imported into FRED DISPENSE PLUS as a whole, rather than adding each 'custom sig' one by one. Other pharmacies (not the same ownership) could also download these documents if they also want to use the same list of 'custom sigs'.

New Script Reminder Report to Default to Generic Drug Name
The new script reminder displays the Item Description as dispensed.
As Prescribing is now by drug name it would be more efficient for prescribers to have the report display as Drug Name then Brand Dispense below regardless of how it has been dispensed.

Highlight patient price changes in Final Check Screen
Patient history/compliance check shows previous pricing but this could be clearer.
Perhaps the current script could be highlighted in a different colour in the dispense history (e.g. yellow)
I'd like to option to be notified/warned when patient price has changed since the last dispensing.5 votesThank you for your feedback

Allow pharmacist to scan the product barcode when selecting a product for dispensing.
This cuts down the search time when selecting products for dispensing - given the large range of generic products now available2 votesThank you for your feedback

Change of colours in Dispense Plus
In Fred Office we can change the colour scheme and in Fred Classic the colours are vibrant and make sense. The colour scheme of Plus is limited and low vibrancy, the icons on the side (which are irrelevant to patient safety) are brighter than the actual dispense interface.

History pop-up when scanning a script is annoying and unnecessary

Button to Stop Safetnet prompt for a customer
Please add a button to stop prompting for a safetynet to be issued.
For example if the patient is an individual who is CTG registered and has a concession card there is no point issuing an SN card as price to patient doesn't change.
It currently prompts after they reach 36 scripts EVERY time you dispense a new script until the end of the year. This is very annoying.2 votesThank you for your feedback

New generic shortcut for Generic Drugs
F11/GS and G will only display the Drug PBS code selected on initial search.
With the amount of 60 day supply medication increasing, selecting the incorrect PBS code is also becoming common for manul scripts.Having a Generic Drug search, eg GD from the drug field, to show all PBS codes for the generic drug, would help reduce dispensing errors as we currently have to mov back to the Drug field and edit the drug select to then find the correct PBS code.
