[Revised Aug 02]
If variable quantity is marked at time of original, the computer will ask quantity and instructions for each of the repeats.
If Quantity - Drug - Brand - Pack - Sig etc is to be different on repeat(s)
Just change any piece of information after selecting the repeat item. Any part of any repeat can be changed at time of dispensing without affecting the original, or earlier repeats.
Each repeat is claimed as a separate item on Claims.
Change of brand
Bring up the item and change the brand or pack. The original will still claim with the brand dispensed.
Similarly for any other information.
To edit the number of repeats to zero (cancel the repeat entitlement).
Pull up the 'Status' panel on the RHS (<alt> + <1>), and untick the 'variable repeats' box. The number of repeats can then be edited to zero to remove the repeat altogether.
