Create Order
Use Create Order to manually enter orders that don't come through automated sources. This includes walk-in patients with paper prescriptions, verbal orders called in by prescribers, or transfers from other pharmacies. Once saved, the order appears in Incoming Orders where you can complete any remaining intake requirements before it advances to PV1.
