  1. Mixtures that require users to add water (eg Amoxil 250mg/5ml) are considered extemp for PBS pricing purposes

    Because of this, the customized PBS fees, which are only for ready-prepared items, do not apply when dispensing those mixtures

    Users want the customized PBS fees to apply for mixtures too

    Thanks for the suggestion, we'll look to include this in a future release

  2. DOT dispensing already prints a copy of the dispensed script after completing a dispensing. User is then required to place coding sticker onto this copy.

    To skip this step, user is requesting that the coding sticker information is printed directly onto this printed script.

  3. When dispensing for a patient who is having a Birthday it would be good if the screen could flash or something similar. Sound Effects?

  4. 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.

  6. When dispensing a drug it highlights green on patient history when it's the same. Would be helpful if the patient had a different strength (or brand) last time it highlighted in a different color. Very easy to miss a change in strength, especially from the final check screen.

  7. When doing an owing mark off, you cant change the drug without changing to private. It asks for authority details, but if there are three lines for the one drug and the wrong one was selected when doing the owing, you can't change it easily. Should be able to go back and not forced to enter authority details first.

  9. Would be really handy to see image of medicine brand on dispense screen or have a link to click to see an image - many patients ask for a tablet by it's shape/colour.

  10. Currently, there is no option to enable the repeat interval field if the pharmacy is located in Victoria.

    Users would like an option to enable this field no matter which state the pharmacy is located in.

  11. A user would like Administration > Dispense Option > Labels > Extra Details to include 'Facility Code & Ward & Bed' option

    A third-party software uses the bed section, not the room, so this is why other options aren’t suitable

    Thanks for the suggestion, we’ll add it for future consideration.

  13. Can the Facility code and Ur number be printer on the small label as it does on the larger label? This is needed for eyedrops to identify where the Drops need to go.

  15. Would be great if we could add Columns like Facility code to the Wait screen. Very useful for large nursing homes when dispersing you can see what Nursing home the script was in.

  16. Change CTRL + Up and Ctrl + Down keyboard shortcuts to view and collapse list of baskets embedded queue (same as Fred Classic shortcuts).
    Currently, these shortcuts toggle through electronic script image however this is already achieved with Ctrl+ Left/Right.

    Seeking User Feedback  ·  Jason responded

    We already show if a drug will fall under the Safety Net 20 day rule in the side history pane. Is there somewhere else you'd like to see it?

  19. In Classic Dispense, if you press the F2 key at any time when on the wait screen or Blank Dispesening screen the Previous Patients history is shown. This is quite useful when you need to check something when finishing dispensing. This saves you from having to type the Patient's Name.
    Suggested using P for the previous but it isn't Alway the place they want the history to appear.
