  1. At present a private script is priced on last cost (if not zero). I have my costing set to weighted average. This should be chosen or ... have an option to choose either.

  3. 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.

  4. The PBS status tile is not updated in real time on all Fred+ instances. This is most annoying when one sees that the tile is RED but on going into the claim screen there is no error.

  5. As it is possible to choose the order of generic and trade names on the label, it would be useful to have this option on the repeat authorisation too!

  6. When viewing the embedded MedView Flow Queue during dispensing there is no indication if the scripts are paper or electronic. For example, if there was a "M" for manual entry this would alert the pharmacist/dispenser to go straight to the manual basket to collect the script.

  7. Whilst the Extemp pricing works fine for PBS items, it is lacking in simplicity for private items. There has to be an easier way to privately price 500g of "bollocks" ointment.
    All I want to do is a private ointment, 500g at $25.00. I dont care about the cost; I just want to set a price at $25.00. The hoops that I have to jump through to get close to this price (and this qty - yep, I make it a qty=1 and in the description add 500g) are unnecessary.

  8. When looking at Patient history in F2 in Fred dispense, can the escript be highlighted as the e is very small. Like owing and deferred scripts colours, very difficult to quickly scan for e

  9. Even the best dispensing practices can lead to the occasional rejected script hitting the tills. No one is perfect. So with this in mind, it would be nice if a rejected script did not hit the till until cleared by a pharmacist. That is to say, either

    1. It gets "fixed" or ...
    2. It gets approved to go to the till (for whatever reason).

    Either way, having rejected scripts hitting the till is quite annoying.

  10. 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. Is it just me or is it hard for the scanners to pick up the barcode on the dispensing labels? I have tried changing the darkness, orientation of the label, different scanners etc etc etc. And the scanners have not changed with the switch to Fred Dispense Plus. Case in point is that I can easily scan labels produced on Classic.

    Any ideas?

  15. the tile for patient notes needs to be brighter colour.
    eg, if we put a comment there, eg, preferns no plastic bag,
    or partially deaf etc, it should scream out at you

  16. 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.

  18. If i need to clear the directions using CTRL-J, then arrow UP to drug window, then back down to directions, the automatic "Take" is missing, and it wont autofill tablet/capsule etc. FRED classic would autofill and add the Take etc.

  19. Might you consider changing the direction of the sigs "d" and "od" from "daily" to "Once a day". I base this request on the following.

    In Australian Pharmacist VOLUME 41 : NUMBER 2 : APRIL 2018, it was noted that
    "three cases of paediatric dosing errors involving prednisolone.
    In each case, parents administered prednisolone three times a day rather than daily as intended. While the directions on the label appeared to be correct – for example ‘give 3 mL daily after food for three days’ – they were misinterpreted"

  20. Could we please have this option appear at the end of dispensing a script for dispense patients who are linked to an account who are not already set to autocharge. This would be beneficial rather than needing to go to extra details manually to set the account as autocharge.
    (Please match workflow to Fred Dispense Classic)
