AppBar Edit Options: To update the icon, image, text. i.e Project Stop
For example, we added the epothecary.com.au as a webpage link but no way to get the Project Stop icon to display or enter the description of what that tile does. Used generic "Paperclip" icon so tile wasn't blank, but you have to click the tile to find out what it does.
20 votesGreat suggestion. We’ll put it up for review in a future release.

Option enable small label printing for OTC items
When users dispense OTC items in Dispense Plus, there is no option to enable small label printing for that item,
The small label printing option is only available for items in Fred Drug Database. Users would like the same option for OTC items as well.
19 votesThanks for the suggestion, we'll look to include this in a future release. In the meantime Own Brand Drugs might be a good option.

Tab to date of birth easier
When entering a new patient there is no way to tab down to a date of birth, it goes from name > address > medicare > concession. Meaning it takes extra clicks of the mouse to be able to enter dob. This is a loss of function from FRED classic. Can you make it so that it goes from the address to dob then to medicare.

dispensing for animals
Selecting Animal as a title should automatically set the medicare consent to No and Always dispense as private. There should also be a field for the animal species and the owner's name.

Print patient barcode on address labels to scan at POS
Fred Classic Dispense Address Labels can print a patient barcode on the Main Fred Dispense Label (above the patient number) allowing users to scan the label at the register to call up their scripts waiting at the till instead of typing the Patient Name in the search field. Can this be added to Fred Dispense Plus as well?
18 votesThanks for the idea, we’ll look to include this in a future release.

Font size & Colours: Option to increase or update colours
For example, the blue/green/grey colours are very faded in contrast and are hard to differentiate at times on different screens, especially on decision buttons. Unable to tell which decision box is selected.
Some things could be clearer & in bold print – eg. last price, last directions

New scripts required report to exclude drugs with deferred script
Currently, new scripts required report will display a list of prescriptions dispensed which are on their last supply.
Users have reported that when a new script is supplied by the prescriber and this script is deferred in the patients dispense history - the expectation is that the report will no longer list the previous last supply of the medication as new script required if a new deferred script record is available for it.
This would avoid the need for users to cross check the new scripts required report against deferred scripts from patient history before providing the report to prescribers…

"Next" button in Administration > Drugs screen
In Administration > Drugs screen, when users want to update the patient price for a drug in each strength (such as Crestor 5mg, 10mg, 20mg, and 40mg), users need to re-type the drug name each time to bring up the different strength.
There should be a "Next" button in Administration > Drugs screen so that system displays the next item without needing to re-type the drug name.

Prevent RTPM alerts/notifications displaying outside dispense/waitscreen
When a red or amber RTPM alert appears - users are forced to either clear the dispense screen or click on the alert in order to make it disappear.
If the alert is not cleared and the user accesses other screens ie Reports - the alert continues to remain on the screen and in some cases blocks buttons on these other screens.

Family Link at P.O.S
Links multiple patients at the Point of Sales, so you don't forget any patient scripts. And they walk out the front door without paying.
Eg. When you bring up the patient's scripts, it also brings up theirs, their spouse, their children, and their career.
Winner Winner Chicken Dinner!

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.

Please consider printing on the labels of e-script items where the repeat has gone. Paper, SMS or emailed. Patients often don't know.
I understand that space on the labels is tight, but having it printed on the label where the repeat has been issued to will help patients locate their future tokens.
15 votesThanks for the idea. Space on the label is challenging but let’s see if others vote for this one.

Queue multiple scripts from F3 repeats remaining
I want to queue multiple scripts from F3 repeats remaining to be dispensed in succession. e.g. if I have 5 scripts I want to dispense from repeats remaining. Rather than pressing F3 then selecting each script, I'd Like to choose multiple scripts then have them load in succession.

Tabs for having multiple patient dispensing profiles open at the same time
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?

Create a Repeat Interval / Script Expiry for medications that don't normally have one
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)
