Record a vaccine forecast

Use it when you know the next dose but the vaccine was not applied in veetz, for example from an old vaccination card. The forecast is not an applied dose.

Before you begin​

Steps​

  1. Open the patient record and click Vaccination in the side menu.
  2. Click the Returns tab.
  3. Under Clinical forecasts, click Add forecast.
  4. Choose the Vaccine, the Next dose date and the Information source: Previous vaccination card, Owner information or Clinical guidance. Add Notes if needed.
  5. Click Save.

Done​

The forecast appears under Clinical forecasts as Planned. After the date, it shows Forecast overdue. It also appears in the Clinical returns report. See View a report.

The forecast does not count as a dose on the card or the receipt, and it does not book an appointment or move stock.

Change or cancel​

On the forecast's line, click the pencil to edit it, or the block icon (Cancel forecast). Type the reason and click Confirm. A cancelled forecast stays in the list with the reason.

When the dose is applied, record the vaccine as usual and cancel the forecast.
