Reason
An anomaly was identified with the ARIA for Radiation Oncology software with a clinical assessment license. Admin instructions may not print on drug order prescriptions or be transmitted with electronic prescribing (e-Rx). When the user changes the prescription "type" field after inputting admin instructions in the text box, the admin instructions portion of the prescription will not be saved to the database. An e-Rx transmitted to the pharmacy will not contain the intended admin instructions. The printed prescription will also not contain the intended admin instructions. This anomaly only occurs for sites that have a clinical assessment license for the aria radiation oncology software / licence set. ARIA users who do not have a clinical assessment license will not be affected.
