Prescriber reports

Reports

Prescriber reports provide users with an overview of Prescriber History, Controlled Drug History, Owing Scripts and New Scripts Required. The Report filters allow some reports to be run for a specific prescriber or all prescribers, and allow a date range to be specified.

When opening the Prescriber reports and a prescriber is already selected in the Main Dispense form, the prescriber is automatically entered in the Report On <Prescriber Name> field.
