This page is for programmers integrating with the MDScripts dispensing system. The page provides information and sample links for your testing purposes. In order to use this page, you will need a site id (5 digits), username and password. These 3 fields identify the site/user for the interface and are the same used on the login screen to access the system.

Link Example #1: Take user to inventory screen

https://www.mdscripts.com/dis/servlet/dis.Main?n=RemoteLogin&siteId=00000&username=username&password=password&target=ShowInventory

Parameters:
n:Should always be "RemoteLogin" to access this api
siteId:Five digit site id number
username:username
password:password
target:Target screen after the login. Examples are "ShowInventory","ShowReports","ShowCart" for dispensing, and "ShowRxPad" for ePrescribing
debug:Having trouble? Please add debug=1 to parameter list to enable debug on our end to assist you


Button Example: Use button or image instead of link

For any of the link examples on this page, you can elect to use an link image or button instead of a text link. Which one you use will depend on which blends in better in your application's user interface. Using a button has a few advantages like easier for the user to locate/click, and you don't have to URL Encode the parameters since the browser form does it when the HTTP POST is transmitted. To use a button instead of link, Example Link #1 would appear like this:

Sample HTML Code:
<form method="POST" action="https://www.mdscripts.com/dis/servlet/dis.Main" target="newWindow">
<input type="hidden" name="n" value="RemoteLogin">
<input type="hidden" name="siteId" value="00000">
<input type="hidden" name="username" value="username">
<input type="hidden" name="password" value="password">
<input type="hidden" name="target" value="ShowInventory">
<input type="submit" name="submit" value="eDispense">
</form>

This Sample HTML generates the HTML button:
You can change the button text to whatever you like and apply any HTML style to this button. If you need more assistance on constructing HTTP POSTS using HTML forms, please let us know.

Link Example #2: Get inventory in CSV format

https://www.mdscripts.com/dis/servlet/dis.Main?n=RemoteLogin&siteId=00000&username=username&password=password&target=ShowExportInventory

Link Example #3: Dispense to blank patient

https://www.mdscripts.com/dis/servlet/dis.Main?n=RemoteLogin&siteId=00000&username=username&password=password&target=ShowCart

Parameters:
n:Should always be "RemoteLogin" to access this api
siteId:Five digit site id number

Link Example #4: Dispense to patient with patient data only (no prescription information)

https://www.mdscripts.com/dis/servlet/dis.Main?n=RemoteLogin&siteId=00000&username=username&password=password&target=ShowCart&externalId=P100&store=1&firstName=Mary+Ann&lastName=Wellby

Parameters:
n:Should always be "RemoteLogin" to access this api
siteId:Five digit site id number
username:username
password:password
target:ShowCart is the name of the screen where the dispensing starts

Below is the listing of all the patient fields that can be passed on this link to ShowCart. Before looking at the patient specific fields, we would like to introduce these control fields:

externalId:If the external system has patient id's passing this along will make this system preload the patient from the database using this id BEFORE parsing the rest of the parameters in this link. This will prevent duplicate patient creation and is highly recommended.
store:Passing this parameter with any value will make the system store the patient information regardless if the operator proceeds with a dispense. This should be used of the dispensing will occur at a later location or if you just need to update patient information.
queue:Default behavior queues the patient. If you do not wish the patient to be added to the dispense queue, then set this value to 0. eg queue=0
