  1. In Fred Office we can change the colour scheme and in Fred Classic the colours are vibrant and make sense. The colour scheme of Plus is limited and low vibrancy, the icons on the side (which are irrelevant to patient safety) are brighter than the actual dispense interface.

  2. In ScanCheck pressing F10 should take you to the final check screen of that drug.

  3. Please add a button to stop prompting for a safetynet to be issued.
    For example if the patient is an individual who is CTG registered and has a concession card there is no point issuing an SN card as price to patient doesn't change.
    It currently prompts after they reach 36 scripts EVERY time you dispense a new script until the end of the year. This is very annoying.

  5. When I enter the sig (e.g. Vent), I sometimes want to edit part of the direction but the directions box only shows me the shortcut (Vent).
    When editing the script, I'd like to see the full instructions in the directions box so that I can edit parts of the full directions

  6. New Pharmacy Students and Pharmacists are being encouraged to use the National standard for labelling dispensed medicines from July 2021 (located: https://www.safetyandquality.gov.au/publications-and-resources/resource-library/national-standard-labelling-dispensed-medicines) for clear and consistent labeling.

    With the Fred Dispense Plus SIGs, these standards are unable to be followed easily. When a number is type it is expressed as a word not as an numeral.

    The standards are recommended change to expressing Numbers as numerals and administration verbs. Examples of changed we would like implemented based on this National Standard

  7. Alert when dispensing a specific drug to a specific patient sort of like a patient allergie. More like a drug note than a warning. As the note gives flexibility on what we can alert the dispensing pharmacist.

    Where this is relevant is if a patient is on staged supply for a specific drug. We could have an alert for this drug for this patient, so if a locum pharmacist is dispensing it would trigger them to look rather than just dispensing and supplying. This could also be utilised if a patient is getting a specific drug quite early, we could…

  8. Be able to check an escript when the label is scanned immediately after dispensing. Having to go into "final check" is an extra unnecessary step especially when you are the dispensing pharmacist. MINFOS have this ability already.

  9. Can a separate option be created which allows pharmacies to charge "allowable additional patient charge" for 60 days dispensing? This will help pharmacies to charge maximum PBS price for 60 days scripts without affecting the price for 30 days.

  10. A feature to automatically convert the dosage from mg to mL of oral antibiotics. Eg/ Dr prescribed amoxicillin 250mg/5mL, and prescribed 120mg tds.

    120mg=2.4mL (we would need to manually calculate this)

    It would be ideal if Fred could automatically convert the mg to mls in this case.

  12. Ability to set the default Address Label (Totals Label)
    We always use Totals Label at POS and this would make it faster if it was default instead of selecting each time

  13. Would like a way to show custom sigs associated with drugs (particularly S3 ?items)
    Suggest to display this in the Warnings tile where we don't look at all details (e.g. S/Care suggestions)

    e.g. ?dispense an S3 (ventolin)
    Warning tile to show
    Sigs: vent

  14. Hi
    Concessional CTG patients still accumulate Safetynet Totals. This is annoying as when they reach the threshold, the SN Card Issue triggers and won't go away until you issue a card. This is a bit annoying as SN is useless to a patient who already gets scripts for $0. Please turn off the SN Card Issue Trigger for Concessional CTG Patients.

  17. When and eRx script is scanned and is a brand it would save time and be more efficient for the generic search window to be displayed. In most cases the brand dispensed prior is not the same at the next store therefore having this window display will save time and reduce dispensing errors.

  20. Is it possible to allow halves in the quantity section. We dispense methadone liquid and are unable to enter exact doses prescribed such as 11.5mL, we also do Diazepam reductions and it would be good to be able to have the label print the quantity being packed e.g 1.5 tablets.
