  3. Consultation Manager is launched and a Repeat Issue consultation for the selected patient is started, the Repeats screen displays and items that the patient requested highlighted.

    Note - If Consultation Manager is already opened and a patient selected, you are prompted to close the consultation and patient record.

  5. Select Print or press F9, check the details and if correct select Finalise to print the prescription.
  6. Now, select Close in the top right corner to close Consultation Manager.
  7. You are then prompted, 'The additional Patient Prescription Request has not been fulfilled. Do you want to mark the request as complete?' select Yes.
  8. Enter a reason for not issuing all the items, this is mandatory, visible to the patient and is recorded in the Event Log .
