To create an order.

Because this function is used in many different circumstances, there are several ways of entering it.

Once in the Orders screen:

• Click Create Order and select the supplier by clicking on the drop-down arrow,

• Specify the period for which you want to order,

• select dispensary or shop order or both.

• Once you have finished selecting OK and the order will be created.

To manually add a known item.

Press the <Insert> key on the keyboard and type in the details. RxOne will look up the item and display past usage for your guidance in deciding on the quantity.

To manually add an item to an order during dispensing, see separate topic

 To look up an item by 'other' PDE

You can look up a product by the supplier PLU, even if the supplier isn't your preferred/major wholesaler:

For example: Your preferred wholesaler = API. Create an order for your backup supplier, Sigma. For a product which can be supplied by both API and Sigma, you used to have to either look it up by its product name, or look it up by the API PLU number.

Now, for a Sigma order you can insert a product using Sigma's PLU.

To manually add an unknown item

Select Edit, then choose 'Add unknown item'. As there is no stock card for this item, it will not be entered as arriving when it is delivered.

To add items o/s previously

Tick the 'Add Reorder items'. This will add to the order , ALL items from the 'Reorder' order on the list of invoices (if there is one).

To create a manual (blank) order.

Select the 'Blank order' option, select a supplier then use <ins> key and insert required items. An unwanted blank order will come up if zero weeks supply is specified, but this should not be used to generate a deliberate blank order.

 To create an order of only items sold for a particular period.

Select the 'Re-order Sold Items' option. Choose either the 'Since last Sold Items Order' option or choose the 'Since Date' option and enter the required date.

To delete an item

Highlight the item & press the <Delete> key on the keyboard. You will be asked the reason for not ordering this line so that 'RxOne' can take note of your wishes for future use. Then OK.

To modify the quantity of an item

Highlight the item concerned and change the quantity. Ok when done.
