Written by Scrypt Support

Advanced Search gives you a powerful tool to find customers across your whole dispensary database.

Why use Advanced Search?

  • It is the fastest way to create a list for bulk SMS communications.

  • You can narrow down a patient search based on:

    • dates of engagement (first time visited, last time visited)

    • age range

    • postcode range

    • repeats held

    • communication styles

    • patient grouping

    • service eligibility

    • and more

Use Advanced Search

1. Open Advanced Search

Go to Scrypt HQ > Advanced. There are two ways to search:

  • Scrypt Search finds customers who have been used within Scrypt and any of Scrypt's features.

  • Dispense Search finds customers from your pharmacy's dispense database, where a customer's profile has been created in your dispensing software.

2. Select one or more filter criteria

Via Scrypt Search:

  • Patient Type: Lead, SOF, or DAA.

  • Group: patient groups, another way to further group patients.

  • Status: mostly used for DAA patients, such as Active, Hospital, or Holiday.

  • Delivery Preference: pick up or delivery.

  • Comms Preference: set within a profile, such as SMS or email.

  • Mobile Status: whether the Scrypt Mobile account is active.

  • Has Order Cycle.

  • Scrypt Reminders Active.

Via Dispense Search:

Personal

  • Personal demographics: standard to most search engines.

  • Postcode range: ideal for holiday destination pharmacies.

  • Age range: search an age range to narrow down your list.

  • Repeats Held: managed within your dispense software.

  • Has Mobile: searches for profiles that contain a mobile number.

Medical

  • Nursing Home: also known as facilities, managed from dispense systems.

  • Medicare Number: search by Medicare number.

  • Repat Number: search by Repat number.

  • Concession Holder: search for concession holders only.

  • Safety Net Entitlement Number: search by Safety Net entitlement number.

Engagement

  • First Visit range: search for customers by the date their profile was first created in the dispense system.

  • Last Visit range: search for customers by the date their last script was dispensed.

  • Whooping Cough Vax eligibility: searches for profiles eligible for the Help Prevent Pertussis campaign (via Scrypt Notify).

3. Select Search

  • Select Search, or Clear Form to reset.

  • Access an individual profile from here.

  • Select profiles to Schedule Bulk SMS. You can select the current page or all pages, which selects only profiles with mobile numbers.

  • Export the data:

    • Export as CSV: ideal for cleaning up the list or adding more numbers, then importing the file for bulk SMS communications.

    • Export as PDF.
