The Lot Maintenance module is designed to be used in conjunction with the Immunizations module to ensure consistency in data entry, as well as to facilitate subsequent tracking of lots in the event of a recall.
It is recommended that upon receipt of immunization lots, a designated staff member enter all associated lot information. Then, when any member of your practice selects that lot number when documenting administration of an immunization, fields for the product are automatically completed.
Important: For users assigned to multiple practices, when entering lots, you must be logged into the subset not the practice level. Lots entered when logged into the practice level are not available in the Immunization module.
