Field Colours  


 

In Pharmacy Manager, certain fields are Mandatory - you must fill them in or the system will not let you continue. Other fields are useful parts of a patient record and it is advisable to complete as many as possible. You never know when the information will be useful.

 

Blue fields

 

The default colour for mandatory fields is determined in Menu > Tools > User details. On installation, they normally show in blue.

 

Red text




 


 

 

If the text shows in RED, then what you have typed is not recognised or may be incorrect or incomplete.

For example, a Postcode in the wrong/incomplete format, or Find does not find a Name because the key has not been pressed.
 

 

Electronic health accounts - incomplete records  

It you are supplying data to the Cegedim electronic health account system, you may be prompted from time to time to complete data that is required to maintain the overall quality of the records.

 

This data is identified by a pale pink field colour. Failure to add this data will not prevent you proceeding in the way that the omission of mandatory data does - see above.

 

Pink fields

 

The default colour for these quasi-mandatory fields is determined in Menu > Tools > User details. On installation, they are normally shown in pale pink.

If you are adding or amending a patient record and do not add data to the preferred level of detail, an Incomplete details prompt will  appear, identifying the shortfall and providing you with the opportunity to complete the specified details.
