Dispense Now

If an item has not yet been sent to Pharmacy for them to fulfil the prescription, users will have the option to select ‘Dispense Now’. This action triggers the normal dispensing of an item via Merlin. 

It will take the user through the standard dispensing workflow with the relevant pop ups for that code. This will then mark the item as issued and will not be sent to the Pharmacy.
