Details of performed counting transactions are instantly recorded by the TORBAL Server. Transactions are compiled into graphs and charts for easy and fast interpretation. General system activity is displayed in a pie chart called the "Workstation usage". The chart shows how many prescriptions have been counted on a particular workstation, allowing the administrator to make sure that prescriptions are evenly spread out among all workstation in the system. The "Transaction activity" line graph shows the number of transactions performed in a specified time frame. This graph is often used to interpret prescription counting and processing patters. Other graphs show information pertaining to pill counting transaction made by specific users and workstations.

The distribution of prescription medications in the United States of America is handled in a much different manner than it is in the European Union.

Up to a thousand pills or capsules can be packaged in these containers. They are distributed by the caseload to wholesalers, and then, in turn, to pharmacies. The required number of pills to be dispensed is counted from these containers, either by hand or with the use of an automatic pill counter. This is known, for obvious reasons, as a Pour and Count system. Both the United States and Canada use this system. |
