Handling Duplicate Vaccine Entries

When there are two or more vaccines with the same lot number, expiration date, J-Code and NDC number in the Immunizations grid (either due to manual entry or through loading a CSV file), red text below the grid alerts you to the fact that you have duplicate records. If both entries are valid, leave them, and the application will combine the quantities when you click Send to Main. Otherwise, select one of the duplicate entries and click Delete Row.

Send Vaccines to Main Inventory

Once all desired vaccines have been loaded into the grid, and errors and undesired duplicates removed, the final step is sending them to the main inventory grid on the Inventory Management template so users can select them for administration to patients. The Send to Main column must have a Y (yes) for a vaccine to be sent to the main inventory grid. Select Send to Main. All immunizations with a Y (yes) in the Send to Main column are sent to the inventory grid on Inventory Management. Any immunizations with a N (no) and/or an ERROR, remain in the Immunization grid until corrected. Note: Immunizations remaining in the Immunization grid are not viewable to administer to a patient.
