  1. Can we please get FRED Office and FRED dispense OTC dispensed item prices integrated? For all OTC lines that we dispense, if the price has changed in FRED Office, the price doesn't automatically change in FRED dispense. Is there a way to make this happen? Thank you

  2. 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.

  3. When searching for a drug in the Drugs List, there is not Stock on hand column. I can see it when using F7 or when dispensing but seeing it in the drug list search will help me identify which items need to priced (the ones with SOH showing)

  4. When printing a Tax Invoice for multiple items in Fred Dispense Plus, PBS and private items are grouped together. The user would prefer the items to be listed chronologically, similar to how they appear on the Receipt (Tax Invoice), regardless of the script type.

  5. Would it be possible to add the wholesaler PDE number to the screen that appears once the script is dispensed? Currently the label appears and the following tiles: coding sticker, warnings, safety net, CMI. It would be very beneficial for ordering products we do not keep and more importantly high cost fridge items which we cannot return. We usually dispense the item first obtain the PDE number and then use this to enter into our wholesaler portal to double check we have the correct product.
    Currently we have to try and remember to obtain the PDE when dispensing the script…

  6. Check if user wants to scan a product when dispensing a 'Blank' product under DVA/Repat Authority, to ensure stock on hand is accounted for.

  7. In fred classic under external SN totals, if putting in an external total of 10, then maximum $ value was restricted to $77.00 (ie 10 x 7.70). The new system allows for higher totals in the value section, ie you could set $100, and the system will auto reduce to $77.00.

  9. 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.

  10. Some hospitals provide a date of birth when requesting patient histories, having the ability to both see and search for the Date Of Birth (like we can for address) would greatly reduce selecting the incorrect patients or having to open multiple patients when search for patients with same/similar names

  11. Remove scripts that been put on hold from the Holding/Deleted Scripts report when they have been successfully reclaimed. At the moment scripts remain listed as 'on hold' in this report even though they have been reclaimed. This makes it difficult to determine which scripts have and have not been reclaimed when going through this report.

  12. AusDI CMI Retrieval for Selected Dispensed Product in Wait Screen

    Description:

    Currently, Fred Dispense Plus integrates with AusDI to allow printing of Consumer Medicine Information (CMI) for the last dispensed product via the AusDI tile. However, a significant workflow issue arises when a user forgets to print the CMI for a previously dispensed item and subsequently dispenses another product.

    Problem:

    When a user selects a previously dispensed product from the "wait screen" (or similar screen where dispensed items are listed) and attempts to retrieve the CMI via the AusDI tile, the system retrieves the CMI for the most recently dispensed…

  13. It would be great if the digital basket's could be scanned at the till to pay for the prescription items and that would automatically reset the basket. I believe you can scan an address label into Fred POS and that brings up the scripts for that patient on script link. Could the digital baskets have the same ability to do that?

  14. Allow pharmacist to scan the product barcode when selecting a product for dispensing.
    This cuts down the search time when selecting products for dispensing - given the large range of generic products now available

  16. 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.

  20. 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.
