  1. The private pricing box is confusing where the curser lands. It would be better if the curser stayed in the patient pricing box and replicated changed in the pricing window that opens.

  2. 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.

  3. 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.

  5. Do you have the capability to set default directions for Schedule 3 medicines that we can customise ourselves? This feature would be helpful for dispensing technicians, as it would save time by eliminating the need to manually input dosage instructions or notes for each prescription.

  6. 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.

  7. 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.

  8. Be able to check an escript when the label is scanned immediately after dispensing. Having to go into "final check" is an extra unnecessary step especially when you are the dispensing pharmacist. MINFOS have this ability already.

  9. When the Server PC is rebooted, the connection parameter screen appears while the system connects in the background. This screen is currently editable, and users sometimes accidentally delete the parameters. To avoid needing support assistance, the user would like the parameters to be non-editable.

  10. Fred+ Dispense integrates essential tools such as eMIMs, AMH, NDSS, and etg, yet it lacks persistent login sessions, saved credentials or a Single Sign-On (SSO) feature.
    Users find it quicker to access these tools via Google Chrome, where saved login details enable instant access, even though this is a less than ideal scenario.
    Implementing persistent login sessions within Fred Dispense Plus would not only streamline access to these critical resources but also enhance the user experience and greatly improve workflow productivity without needing to leave the Fred+ Dispense ecosystem.

  11. At the moment there is a limit to only view 5 scripts on the right hand side of the medview basket, would like to it to be increase so there is no limit.

  12. Can we update FRED DISPENSE PLUS to print SN numbers (or concession numbers) on the top right hand-side of the label as FRED CLASSIC used to do?

  15. Where searching generically, show all medications of that generic molecule. eg. when searching atenolol, noten does not appear as an option. Only medications with atenolol in the name appear

  16. It would be convenient if the final check screen had access to information like the C&A warnings, to double-check that all labels etc have been added to the label or packaging.

  17. When entering name to search for a new patient, the system could flag matches against the medicare last name or medicare first name fields in addition to the normal name fields. The matches perhaps could show lower in the list of matches but still be there.

    Consider this example: Mr Robert Smith, who everyone calls Bob.
    - If we enter him as Bob Smith, with a medicare first name of Robert, but the Dr writes a script as Robert Smith. We type in "smith r" and don't get a match so we type all his details in and only when…

  18. In regional areas it is quite common for patients to have a post office box or similar. It would be very helpful to have a separate field for this postal address.

    A common workaround is to write the address as: 18 Street Name (PO Box 18) but that often doesn't fit on the printed field on repeats, and sometimes the postal suburb is different to the residential. So this is imperfect at best.

    If this change was made, you might also need to create separate functions to create printed labels for residential address (for deliveries) or postal address (for mail).

  19. Was wondering if there could be a better way to store Doctor approvals in the Prescriber profile. I.e. CBD TGA approvals, a notes section (perhaps to state whether they accept owing requests or something), etc?

  20. Can all the videos on the FRED website (dispense, office etc) have playback speed added to them, so we can watch the videos on 1.5x or 2x and thus save time.
