Did they not give you any training? Usually when it’s a new grad, you will be put with another rph at least for 2-3 days. That’s the time to ask these questions as it’s difficult to explain and go over these scenario without being in front of computer. If this is not an option, then call other neighborhoods and ask if it’s okay to come in for couple of hours and ask these questions. You may not get paid for your time but you need to learn this stuff. Also, your techs can show you lot of these tricks.

You can break the box of Euthyrox. Nitro? I don’t do emergency nitro. Never run into that situation either.
 
I cannot believe they are hiring new grads like this for Walmart Neighborhood Market

Don't be that pharmacist that picks R0. M0/1B, or M0/1G for Optum

Never ran into an "emergency fill" for NTG (uh go to the hospital?). Euthyrox if you DC that NDC temporarily the loose bottle NDCs will be selected automatically (unless Euthyrox was the originally typed presentation). Never broke a Euthyrox box either.

Hi everyone,

I just started working for Walmart Neighborhood Pharmacy and it's my first job after graduation. I need some help navigating connexus. For example, how do I do an RTS? What tabs do I select for RTS?
What are the tabs/steps for a partial fill?
What codes do I select for coverage rejection alerts?
How do I change the onhand quantity for Moderna when we are about to process cycle count?
What to do when a patient needs an emergency fill, say for the weekend for a prepackaged prescription such as Euthyrox or Nitroglycerin tablets in a bottle that cannot be stock tabs?

I really appreciate any tips you all have. Thanks.
RTS from the handheld, search on WIRE for POM how to do it for 10 days.
F6, select rx, edit, easy from there
I have never seen a broken box of Euthrox in my float area. That would be a great way to piss off most PICs.
Browse and print filling rts vaccine poms from wire.

My old DM used to take any New Grad that could form a coherent thought who he could lowball. NHM is much quieter than SC around here so maybe DM justifies it in their mind that way.
 
Euthyrox costs company cents and if rx was originally written for Euthyrox, you have to break the box for emergency fill. It can be broken.
 
Sine Cura, have to start somewhere darling. Where did you start?

TBF though it's good you actually want to learn. I seen so many GD lazy pharmacists where they don't even bother to affix a RTS label once in a while or do CII cycle counts because they were "too busy" looking at their phone from 8 AM to 9 AM
 
I learned a trick for those unit of use packages. From F8, go in to details of drug and there is a check box to un-check to drug won't dispense as unit of use and that way it will create emergency fill for 3 day supply.

Had hard time doing emergency fill for metformin 500mg because it was set up as 30 tablet bottle unit of use, So system prints 3 labels when filling 90 tablets. If you try to do emergency fill, it will say can't do it because its unit of use is 30.

Also We have open euthyrox boxes for some strengths where directions are use M,T, F , S or some weird combination where you end up with uneven quantity.

My pharmacy manager does not ever affix RTS labels. She can’t even put up C3-5 after checking them in and it’s just a few drugs each time at my location.
 
If part of the job description is "modeling behavior" 9 out of 10 pharmacists are dog **** at it

If you put them at intake to process a COVID-19 jab they wouldn't even know where to start right away with Medicare and Medicaid recipients

"Single dispense" flag is always annoying. They should remove those resolution nag messages and emergency fill is initiated by the pharmacist anyway so hope that pharmacist is not dumb enough to emergency fill Genvoya

Thank you. Yeah, I agree phones can cause some distraction.
 
One of my pet peeves with Connexus is that it doesn't report the initials of the person who RTS it. Of course the development team said they would include it in their list of user feedback in the next update. The interface is very Windows 95 especially with the icons. I get a heavy VB undertone.
 
It isn't useless since that info can be included via Pickup Maint. It's just that the system currently doesn't
