Some medications may require start and end dates in order to be appropriately scheduled and appear in eMAR accurately. Follow the steps below to add Start and End dates for a medication.


​Step 1:
Click into the appropriate med order to edit.


​Step 2:
Scroll to the Details for Schedule and Dosage. Enter the necessary Start and End dates by selecting the date from the calendar when you click into the field.

Step 3:
Once you have entered the dates, click the "Save" button at the bottom of the page to save the changes to the order.

The order will appear in eMAR according to the start date and will stop appearing once the end date is reached.
