The Private Prescription Register report displays the following totals:

  • The item price for each prescribed medication item on the prescription:

    Training Tip - The reference number consists of yyyymmdd-nnn where yyyymmdd is the dispense date and nnn is the number of the instance during that day. You can switch off the Reference Number option in Printer Details, see Private Prescription Register Reference Numbers for more details.
  • A total item price for the filtered report:

Note - If an item is fully owed, it does not appear in the private prescription register until some or all of the outstanding balance is dispensed. If an item is partially owed, the full cost displays regardless of the owing balance. When the balance is collected, it therefore displays as zero.
