Delivery Group File
Delivery Group File
The Delivery Group File allows users to add and manage delivery groups used to organize prescription deliveries. Grouping deliveries is optional and can be used when needed, such as for nursing homes, long‑term care facilities, or secure apartment buildings where deliveries are received by a single receptionist or staff member. In these scenarios, a single signature may be collected for all prescriptions within the group.
To edit an existing delivery group, click the appropriate group name from the list. The list of delivery groups can be sorted at any time by clicking a column header, allowing records to be reordered as needed.
To access the Delivery Group File screen, click on Dispense / Delivery Delivery Group File.
Adding a New Delivery Group
To add a new delivery group, select the Add Delivery Group button and enter the required information. The only required field is the group name; however, additional details may be entered as needed. Remarks can also be added to provide supplemental information about the group.
Once all information has been entered, click Save to save the record and continue adding another delivery group, or click Save & Exit to save the record and exit the screen.
To discard any changes and clear the data currently displayed on the screen, click Cancel or press Enter when the Cancel button is highlighted.
Delivery Group in Cloud Delivery Application
When creating a group delivery in Cloud Delivery, selecting the Information (“I”) icon displays additional group details. This view shows the delivery group name along with a list of patients included in the group whose prescriptions are being delivered. This allows the pharmacy and driver to quickly verify which patients are associated with the group delivery before dispatch.
Printing
To print the list of delivery groups, click the Print button or press Enter when the Print button is highlighted.
Exporting
To export the delivery group list, click Export Data or press Enter when the Export Data button is highlighted. Exporting to Excel is supported only on full versions of Microsoft Excel or Microsoft Office. It does not work with Office Starter 2010 or other starter or third‑party Office versions. If Excel export is unavailable, export the data as a Comma Separated Values (CSV) file instead.
