  1. Currently the side bar reduces full visibility significantly as in classic, which had excellent viability and a color contrast that was significantly easier on the eye.
    Many may use the side bar, I do occasionally, but when not in use, I want it to hide (as is the case with many dock's/side bars).
    Also full screen visibility with improved color contrast would enhance daily use significantly.

  3. The ability to resubmit multiple scripts at once like FRED classic with a single button so we can do it before we close claim just in case something hasn't been processed properly whilst PBS has been down

  4. 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.

  5. 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.

  6. The patient history sometimes just shows ingredient name and not the brand name - would be better if it showed Brand name, maybe even in brackets, so we know what brand we have dispensed in the past so as not to cause confusion

  7. 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.

  10. "Print Patient Dockets for Script Collection" for scripts in and out use. used this feature in FD and would like to see it in Fred Dispense Plus. it was the best way to manage scripts coming into the pharmacy.

  11. Would like the ability to export, to excel/word/pdf a report that replicate the Classic Drug Listing, https://webhelp.fred.com.au/freddispense/help-topics/report-drug-listing.htm

    Report should contain
    Fred Code
    Drug Description
    Generic
    Pack
    Price (Private/PBS/S3 - depending on filters)
    Wholesale Price

    This can be used to review pricing margins and markups of list cost.

  12. 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.

  13. When using ZZ to mark off owing prescriptions post conversion, it should automatically drop the ZZ in the directions when dispensing the repeat.

    This behaviour is seen in Fred Classic

  14. Create a hide drug indicator, such as HID to the supplier field in Lists>Drugs

    This would be helpful to hide particular drug brands not used and so that it doesn’t appear in the selection screen when Dispensing.

  15. Adding the patient directions to the Final Check screen would allow our Pharmacists to check that if there have been any dose changes to be discussed with the patient as well as confirm that the dispensing are correct. currently we are having to press Edit then F2, then Filter for the drug to confirm previous supplies directions which is taking us extra time for each script.

  16. When clicking on the continued dispense option, dispense screen should stay in the patient you were in and not clear the screen so you have to enter patient details again

  17. Currently, in Fred Dispense Plus, the allowable additional patient charge is set globally under the Administration > pricing options.

    As the 60-day medicine dispensing policy is about to be introduced, users would like a new setting that allows the allowable additional patient charge to be applied based on the type of prescription. For instance, if the prescription is a 30-day supply script, the system would automatically set the allowable additional patient charge to $0.00. On the other hand, if the prescription is a 60-day supply script, the system would apply the maximum allowable additional patient charge of $3.29.

  18. Patient History Notes: Display ABOVE patient's dispensed scripts NOT BELOW - for all items with the same date.

    Just like in original FRED. Makes it easier and less backwards.

  20. 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
