  2. Can we please get FRED Office and FRED dispense OTC dispensed item prices integrated? For all OTC lines that we dispense, if the price has changed in FRED Office, the price doesn't automatically change in FRED dispense. Is there a way to make this happen? Thank you

  3. 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

  4. 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.

  5. In some cases, PBS will return rejections which cannot be cleared.
    Eg 'R 312 The prescription could not be cancelled as it could not be found'

    In Fred Classic, these can be manually deleted - however, in Dispense Plus users cannot remove these records as the script has been cancelled.

    This affects their PBS status tile - leaving it Red for the remainder of the claim instead of Yellow/Green.

    Also, Cancelled non-transmitted records cause the same issue as the record is stuck as 'cancelled - non-trans' for the remainder of the claim - affecting the PBS status tile.

    • Add the retail price (DPMQ) of drug to the ‘Drug Details tile’ when cost/drug pde is displayed

    • When editing a script already dispensed or dispensing a repeat or blank repeat drug, cost price to also display

  6. Please allow a function to search by phone number, this is super useful in Z Dispense, and was one of the cited reasons my old pharmacy chose to go with Z over Fred. Should be easy enough to do right

  7. Have a Dispense Option for the eScript Preference so that it does not default to None reducing the keystrokes when creating a patient.

  8. 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…

  9. Colour of owing and colour when it is cancelled. its used to be a bold red when it was owing, then changed to a light red once it was cancelled off, now it makes it a light grey which is harder to see when youre going back through the history. Can it go back to being more obvious if it is an owing and if it has been cancelled

  10. Currently, scan check status does not reset after changing brand > due to this user is unable to perform scan check with the new brand again

    Scenario
    - dispense Amoxil 500mg for example
    - perform scan check successfully
    - customer changes mind and edit the script to a generic brand
    - scan check status does not reset and remains successful
    - user is unable to perform scan check with the generic brand again

  13. Currently too small and would be better under and next to set price.

    The script pricing and SOH tiles would be better adjacent to the script override pricing box. Needing to look to the right to find the tile.

    When the drug is selected, have the ACTUAL COST and SOH to be highlighted in larger font in their respective tiles.

    This is used for every script so needs to be easy to see.

  14. Patients who have been flagged as deceased should no longer be included in the PRF if they have not contributed to the SN threshold for that year.
    Alternatively, they could also be automatically unlinked in family maintenance.

  15. Ability to set instructions for a medication (e.g. Ventolin). When the medication is selected, instructions automatically load -- without need to enter SIG. Direct link to drug instead.

  16. It would be handy to see where the Last Buy price is GREATER than the PBS W/C cost at the time of selecting the drug or from the Drug Details Tile
    Give the Pharmacist/Dispenser a reason to questions the validity of the data and confirm/update prices before processing the script.

  19. Any idea when real-time messaging on all terminals will happen. By real-time I mean
    1. Claim tile changing to green when someone on another terminal fixes the issue or, indeed, to reflect the current status of the claim
    2. The eRx queue
    3. The dispense list (wait screen)

    etc
