General configuration tasks for controlled drugs

chevron_right

Configure the Medication Prescription dialog box to show Serial Number boxes

A practice manager can configure the Medication Prescription dialog box to show Serial Number boxes. As a result, when staff prescribe a medication, they can record the serial number of a serialized prescription pad.

To do the configuration, do this procedure.
Note: Not all states make it mandatory to include serial numbers of serialized prescription pads in controlled drug reporting. To make sure that you include mandatory information in your reporting, do a check of your state's regulations.
Note: You cannot make the Serial Number box mandatory.
  1. Select Admin.
    The Admin tab
  2. In the settings list, select Settings.
    The Settings setting in the settings list
  3. Select System.
    The System setting
    ezyVet shows a System Settings screen.
  4. Select Clinical.
    The Clinical tab
  5. Select Serial Number field shows on prescription.
    The Serial Number field shows on prescription setting
  6. Select Save.
    The Save button
    ezyVet shows a confirmation message:

When staff prescribe a medication, the Medication Prescription dialog box shows Serial Number boxes:
The Serial Number box
Note: A staff member cannot record the same serial number again and again. If the staff member tries to enter the same serial number again, ezyVet shows an error message.
Note: A Serial Number box can have a maximum of eight characters.
