In Pyxis, I have the option to scan a barcode to see if it has already been linked with a medication or not. In Webclient, I have to go into that specific medication and see if it has been scanned under the item master. The same barcode could be scanned under multiple drugs and I would never know. Wish Webclient had the option to simply scan the barcode and tell me if it's already assigned or not.
Pyxis also has the option to allow a tech to scan in, but must be verified by a pharmacist. Wish this was also capable in webclient to ensure accuracy of scans.
The only (cumbersome) work around I have found for this is to run an ad hoc report with all NDCS, download to excel, then control + F to search and see if the ndc is already in there. Have to rerun the report EVERY time NDCs change to get the most up to date list...
Hi Bailey,
This was discussed during the Pharmacy Spotlight session October 3, 2024 and is on my 2025 roadmap. No date specifics as of yet. The plan is to create a new screen where a user can scan the barcode and the system will display all items attached to that barcode and allow direct access to that item in Item Master. If the barcode isn't attached to any items, the user will have the ability to launch directly to the Item Master and add the barcode.

I see this has changed to "future development" status. Do we have any ETA on when this could potentially become a reality? We have so many NDCs not scanning because we just don't have the time to go into every single med ID and scan an inner barcode to see if it's already there or not. One database for all scans would be so helpful.
