Notes
- When adding a medication that requires supplies (e.g., syringes for injectables), the system should prompt for the associated supplies. This validation is currently limited in Zoho and often requires code intervention. See Zoho Development.
- PDMP/PMP checks are performed for controlled substances — tracked in the PDMP_PMP_checks module.
