Drug Address Code (Location Code)~

Drug Address Code (Location Code)

A code that represents the location of a drug in the NAOU. For example, if TYLOX is stored in an NAOU on the second set of shelves, third shelf from the top, its drug address code could be expressed as S,2,3. The address code can consist of up to three levels separated by a comma. Each level should further define the exact location. The code is associated with an expansion code for clarity.
