Replacement Brand

[Reviewed Apr 2016]

To set up a prompt, go to the Stockcard, under the drug information tab, go to the Replacement Brand/Indication and type in the new brand.

This field is both brand and indication specific i.e. you can choose another indication within the same card. Make sure you choose the right indication if there is more than one. Once the replacement brand/indication is set in the stockcard, when you select the “old” brand or “old” indication in dispensary, a prompt will come up alerting you that the brand/ indication has been replaced and would you like to use the ‘new’ brand / indication.

The replacement prompt will also come up when copying a script if you have set a replacement brand or indication in the stockcard.

If you answer yes to use the 'Replacement Brand', the generic name of the replacement brand will display and print on the label.
