What's New in Fred Dispense
Disable/re-enable ePrescription
You may need to disable an electronic script—for example, if the patient is a doctor shopper and you want to reduce the clinical safety risk.
A new option has been added to the Activities menu to disable or enable an ePrescription. You can only disable an ePrescription if its state is Active.
For more information, see Disable or re-enable an ePrescription.

How to make sure items are assigned to departments in Fred Office Plus

- Select the No Department checkbox and then click Run Report.
- For each product item in the list, assign it to a department:
