Ancillary and Pharmacy departments can release any Future Order types as long as the user/role is set up with the behavior control "Release All Future Order Types" in System Administration. If this behavior control is not enabled, the user will only be able to release Future Orders from their own issuing department.

 

To release Future Orders from the Census screen, select System Menu >  Hospital Base Menu > Access Department # > Enter Patient Account Number > Future Orders
