  1. 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

  2. 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.

    Thanks for the suggestion, we’ll consider this in the future.

  3. 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?

  4. 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

  8. 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

    Thanks for the post. We’ll see if we can include this improvement in a future release.

  9. 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.

    Great suggestion – we’ll look to include this in a future release.

  11. 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.

  12. 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"

  13. 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)

    Thanks for the post and for the suggestion. We’ll put this in for consideration when we next make any changes to the Wait Screen.

  17. Allow for integration of dispense with non-drug stock cards e.g. OTC items for the safe dispensing i.e. scan check ability. Also the ability to have set prices for non-drug items e.g. Webster Pak fees could be charged via Dispense without the need to overtype the price when charging multiples - e.g X1 for $5 then X2 for $10 rather than currently using dispensing fees etc

  18. The private pricing box is confusing where the curser lands. It would be better if the curser stayed in the patient pricing box and replicated changed in the pricing window that opens.

    Thanks for the feedback. We’ll review the current implementation to see how we can improve the pricing screen experience.

  19. May we have all date boxes formatted uniformly? Many are dd/mm/yy but some are dd/mm/yyyy.

    Thanks for the suggestion – yes, we considered many options when building the label. Have added to the backlog for future consideration
