What's New in Propel Rx 1.6 HF3

A new Prescription report called the Electronic Hardcopy can now be generated from outside the Propel Rx application. In Propel Rx 1.7, this report will be integrated into the Propel Rx Reports module and available for all provinces.

The report will display the electronic hardcopies for one or more prescriptions in a landscape format. Prescriptions with a status of Complete, Cancelled, Amend, Hold, or Queued are included if their Fill Dates fall within the specified date range. If Fill Date is absent, the Performed On Date determines if a prescription is included in the report. Deleted prescriptions are excluded. Attachment images appear to the right of the electronic hardcopy if they have one of the following Descriptions:PrescribeIT® Prescription Electronic Copy, Prescription, Written Prescription, Adaptation, Adaptation Continuity of Care, Adaptation Emergency Fill, or Pharmaceutical Opinion. Each page of the report is dedicated to one prescription, however prescriptions can also span multiple pages if the electronic hardcopy information is lengthy and/or more than one applicable attachment exists. Use this report to generate required information for audits.

To generate the report:

1. On Workstation 1 (WS1), open File Explorer. This report will only be available on WS1.

   The Workstation number is indicated at the bottom left corner of Propel Rx after logging in.

2. Copy the following file path and paste it into the Address bar at the top of File Explorer.

   C:\PharmacyApps\Nexxsys\Reports\Nexxsys.Reports.exe

3. Press Enter on the keyboard. The report will launch.

   Only the Electronic Hardcopy report will be available from this location. All other reports should be generated from within Propel Rx.

4. Enter the parameters for the report. For more information on the parameters, select the dropdowns below.

   • Select Yes to the prompt to continue printing or previewing the report. Please note, if there are many pages, it will take time for the report to generate.
