Revision as of 21:28, 17 September 2011

I am documenting here how to partially set-up the CS package. I don't cover initializing the inventory here, mostly because the receiving function relies on IFCAP/Prime Vendor functionality which I don't have set-up. I also don't cover how to set-up printing green sheets. Consult the technical manual for that.

The main reason I am setting up the package is to tell inpatient pharmacy which CS drugs are ward stock at which Wards.

Menu

The main menu for pharmacy is PSD MENU. For nurses it's PSD NURSE MENU.

Keys

To initialize the package, you need the following keys:

• PSDMGR
• PSD TRAN
• PSD PARAM

Package users rely on the same keys as Inpatient Pharmacy (PSJ RPHARM and PSJ RNURSE)

Jobs

PSD PURGE should be run daily after the package is intialized.

Set-up Steps

Define CS Site

Select the site you made for Ward Stock, and tell VISTA it's to be used for Controlled Substances as well.

        one inpatient site name, i.e. for multi-divisional sites or nursing

Mark Drugs for CS Package Use

Before you go on, collect the following on the drugs that are treated as controlled substances in your pharmacy:
