Cycle Name: You can set this to a nursing home name, a priority level (ex. green, red, yellow) , or any label that can help the pharmacy remember the timing for filling the prescriptions.

Cycle Timing Type: Choose between a Period-based or Anniversary-based schedule.

• Period based - the number of days for this Cycle period (ex. 30, 60, 90)

• Anniversary based - allows for the two specific dates to be set. (ex. 1st, 15th)

Rx Days Supply Same as Cycle Period: Sets the days supply to match the timing of the cycle period.

• Options: ('Yes, No')

Fill Date to Print on Label: Determines the fill date to be printed on the label.

• Actual Fill Date - The fill date entered during Rx processing (Best option: less confusing for pharmacy).

• Cycle Date - The date the prescriptions was filled when the cycle was triggered.

• Special Fill Date - Prompts for custom fill date when the cycle timing is trigger, some pharmacies may use this for nursing home requirements.

Days Supply To Print on Label: Specifies the days supply to be printed on the label.

• Actual Day Supply of Rx - Reflects the days supply of the Rx filled during processing (Best option: less confusing for pharmacy).

• Number of Days in Cycle - Based on the number of days set in the cycle timing type for the cycle manager.

“Auto Dispense” after adjudication: Automatically sets the prescription as dispensed after processing. If set to Yes, you can adjust the minutes to dispense after adjudication.

• Options: ('Yes, No')

Refill Queue to Assign: Sets the default refill queue to process prescriptions from, or allows for a custom queue.

Pharmacies are advised to create a custom refill queue for their workflow, potentially one specific to a LTC Facility (Nursing Home).

Avoid using the default Refill Queue, as it may cause issues.
