Actual Methadose Quantity Report Utility

The Actual Methadose Quantity Report utility is located in your McKesson PTS Utilities folder that allows your store to generate a report that retrieves the actual Methadose quantities used (e.g. decimal quantities) when dispensing Methadose prescriptions.

Purpose of Report

When a Methadose prescription is dispensed, PharmaClik Rx decrements its inventory as a whole number, regardless of whether the quantity dispensed is a decimal. Therefore the Actual Inventory for Methadose may not be an accurate reflection of the actual On-Hand amount displayed. This utility takes decimal quantity dispensing of Methadose into consideration, allowing stores to accurately track their Methadose inventory.

To generate the Actual Methadose Quantity Utility Report:

  1. Double-click the McKesson PTS Utilities folder located on your desktop.
  2. Double-click on Retrieve Methadose Actual Quantity utility. The Retrieve Methadose Actual Quantity Utility launch screen is displayed with 3 possible report options.
