CMS (Serial Prescribing) Dispensing Messages
CMS Dispensing messages contain details of dispensing events. Within Mail Manager 
you can see the following details:
- Patient
- Dispenser
- Unique Prescription Number (UPN)
- Item number
- Date dispensed.
Note - The drug name is not included in the Dispensing Update message, this is because the pharmacist is not obliged to dispense the exact item specified by the GP.
The information from the dispensing message is automatically filed in the patient record and is visible as a dispensing event from the Scripts or CMS filter in the Therapy tab. A Dispensing message may be received for a cancelled CMS item if the CP does not claim for the dispensed item before the cancellation is made. Dispensing messages which pertain to cancelled CMS items are flagged as unallocated and are not autofiled. You may manually allocate and file such messages if required.
