  2. Just an idea to aid convenience.

    When a patient calls to put in an order for scripts to be dispensed, if they have MySL set up, it is quite easy to tick what they would like and place it into the queue.

    If a patient does not have MySL, we either have to note it down on paper, or more commonly we reprint the last dispensing label for the medicine the patient is after. Is it possible to have a little note taking tool with patient details and a way to just tick a box (like on MySL) that prints…

  3. When scanning in more than 5 erx's into the Medview Flow the whole job is not visible in the column on Fred dispense Plus. Only the first 5 rxs are visible and a comment of (5 of 10 rxs) for example is underneath. If it could be expanded to see the total order if would be beneficial

  4. When dispensing an eScript for a patient without patient preference, we are directed to the F8 (Patient Maintenance form to update).
    Can we bypass patient maintenance and have this be a prompt with the options (Print, SMS, Email, MySL) instead?

  5. 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.

  6. Toggle Yes/No if you want to print out the Continued Dispensing Consumer Declaration and Prescriber Notification Form.

    No other dispensing system requires this, probably better to remove altogether, as its a waste of paper.

  7. Every invoice that we receive from our suppliers has the bank details on the base of invoice to facilitate payment BUT ours do NOT! We issue Invoices with all our day procedure patients and are having to waste a label that we manually stick on to provide this information. Can we please have an allocated space on invoices to provide payment/bank details.

  8. I was wondering if we could have a note that is a little harder to bypass compared to the red pop up note where you have to type 'c' to continue. Perhaps another skin where you can type the note which pops up when looking up the patient, but to continue you have to type out a specific word. The reason it has become quite routine to hit 'c' to get passed that note, and now we don't read the note as often as we should.

  9. Presently the new medication shows up in bold in the dispensing field but when you change brands or strengths it appears in orange. It would be good if the box could be filled with a colour to help make it stand out better.

  10. Print out the actual quantity of the pack on the dispense label when dispensing for multiple pack items - not the total quantity on each of the labels

  11. If a drug has many ancillary labels, the script number on the dispense label prints in a non-bold and very small font.

    For example, Twynsta tablets require ancillary labels #11, 12+, 16+, 18, 21, 9, and A, which results in the script number appearing in a small non-bold font on dispense labels that users find hard to read.

  15. When using the 'blank' drug options to dispense a non FRED listed item eg OTC, there should be a manual option to enter the PDE of that product to allow the POS system to recognise the product to allow correct SOH corrections.

  17. Would like keyboard shortcuts added to finalcheck screen. E.g. press 'e' to edit from finalcheck; press 'S' to open scancheck. Have them underlined like in the wait Screen.

  18. I've seen the earlier comments about refusing to change the system sigs or making them editable (maybe even for the administrator only?)
    The issue is some of them just look silly... The system sigs have incorrect grammar or just look silly if used where they are intended to go. I know I can make custom digs but the dispene techs will follow what comes up in fred dispense plus ancilliary labels when they process a script.

  19. Fred Dispense Plus displays a prompt asking the user if they would like to continue dispensing. If the user selects "Yes" in response to that prompt, they are able to proceed with dispensing. It shouldn't allow it in any circumstances (Classic doesn't allow this option).

    Furthermore the dialog box is grey, and looks the same as the SN20D prompt which is also grey and can easily press yes accidentally.

    For legal and safety purposes could this prompt be red in colour or to remove the ability to dispense expired S8 scripts altogether.
