Unmapped Drugs

Occasionally, you will be required to map or link drugs from your Dispense Software to the drugs listed your patient’s profile. Once drug mapping is completed, it will be applied to all patient profiles with the same drug. So, the next time the drug is dispensed, it will appear in the Mapped tab, ready for importing to update patients' pill balances.
We highly recommend that you check for unmapped drugs once you have completed importing all prescriptions in Mapped tab. This will ensure the drugs are mapped and quantities imported into your patient’s pill balance.
