Creating Reminders
How to create and manage tasks for yourself or your pharmacy team.
Overview
Reminders help you and your team keep track of tasks, follow-ups, and deadlines. Use reminders for cycle counts, reorder follow-ups, patient autofills, expired return processing, or any other pharmacy activity that needs to be tracked.
Viewing Reminders
Reminders are organized into groups:
- Overdue — Past the due date and not yet completed.
- Due Today — Due today.
- Upcoming — Due in the future.
- Completed — Finished tasks.
Overdue and due today reminders appear on the Dashboard. When you log in and there are reminders due, a prompt will appear asking you to review them. The sidebar also shows a badge with the count of due reminders.
Creating a Reminder
- Navigate to Reminders from the sidebar.
- Click New Reminder.
- Fill in the details:
Title — A short description of the task (e.g., "Reorder Adderall XR, Follow up on RX #12345").
Description (optional) — Additional details.
Visibility — Choose who can see this reminder:
- Personal (Only me) — Only you can see it
- Pharmacy (All staff) — Everyone can see it
Priority — Low, Medium, High, or Urgent.
Remind On Date — When the task should be completed. Choose from quick presets (Today, Tomorrow, In 3 Days, In a Week, In a Month) or select a custom date.
Repeat — Set up recurring reminders. Options include:
- Does not repeat
- Daily
- Weekly
- Monthly
- Custom (specify interval in days, weeks, or months)
If you select a repeating reminder, you can optionally set an Ends on date.
- Click Create Reminder.
Completing a Reminder
Click the Complete button on a reminder to mark it as done. You can optionally add a completion note describing what was done.
Completed reminders move to the Completed section and show who completed them and when.
Filtering
Use the filter options to show:
- All / My Reminders / Pharmacy — View all reminders, only yours, or only pharmacy-wide reminders
- Active / Completed — Show active or finished tasks
- All Priorities / Urgent / High / Medium / Low — Filter by priority level
Dashboard Integration
Overdue and due today reminders appear on the Dashboard when you log in. If there are reminders due, a prompt will appear asking you to review them. The sidebar also shows a badge with the count of due reminders.
Creating Reminders from Alerts
You can convert any alert into a reminder directly from the Alerts page. The reminder will be pre-filled with the alert's details, such as low stock warnings or expiration notices.
Deleting a Reminder
To delete a reminder, click on it and select Delete from the options menu. Deleted reminders are permanently removed and cannot be recovered.
