Over-labeling of unused drug units
Over-labeling allows you to update the labels of unused drug units in a lot with the newest expiration date. You can over-label whenever you add a new expiration date to individual drug units or lots.
When you add or change an expiration date, a message asks if you want to over-label the unused supplies. You can over-label lots at these levels:
- All Supplies—All drug units at sites, depots, or in shipments.
Select All Sites, All Depots, and All Shipments to overlabel all supplies.
- All Sites—All drug units at all sites.
- All Depots—All drug units at all depots.
- All Shipments—All drug units that are in transit.
Drug units with the following statues are over-labeled:
- Available
- Expired
- Pre-Quarantined
- Temporarily Unavailable
- Raised (in transit)
- Shipped (in transit)
Drug units with the following statues are not over-labeled:
- Damaged
- Destroyed (Site or DDF)
- Dispensed
- Misassigned
- Missing
- Post-Quarantined
- Processed for Destruction
Note: If you are over-labeling drug units at individual sites or depots and the process cannot be completed at one time, you must first change the status of the drug units to Temporarily Unavailable, and then associate the drug units or lot to the next expiration date.
