Report:  Dosing History

 

(Topic Last Updated On:  05/05/2010)

 

This report is similar to the Total Dispensed by Day report and displays all dosing transactions recorded over a selected date range, however this report excludes recorded dosing comments.  This report is generally printed at the end of each dispensing date, and serves as the formal hard copy record of dispensing activity once signed by all dispensing personnel.  Preference and policy determine whether or not the Total Dispensed by Day or Dosing History report is printed daily in each facility, as there are minor differences in the detail information displayed on each.
