2. Right click on the item in the CMS filter and select Set overdue dispensing alert.
3. At the CMS Overdue Dispensing Alert window, enter the time period for which you would like the alert to display in the Interval box. You can enter d for day or m for month. The date the alert is triggered on displays in the bottom right hand corner.

   

4. Select OK to save.

   Note - The overdue dispensing alert can be removed at any time by selecting Set overdue dispensing alert and blanking out the interval.
