2. Find the synthetic product

Keep the Product tab selected. The picker can show categories such as Demo Medications. Type SYNTHETIC in Search products, then choose Synthetic Training — Paracetamol 500mg from the actual results. Typing a product search searches across categories; do not select the neighbouring nutrition example or gauze pack.

All quantities, frequencies and durations are fictional interface examples, not a clinical order, measurement, recommendation or treatment. Do not dispense or administer. This is the prescription-level note, separate from the per-product Note cell.

  2. Choose 2 count: Select count explicitly from the quantity options.

5. Set QD separately on both instructions

Open Frequency on the first line, search QD, and select QD (Once a day). Open the second line’s Frequency and repeat the selection there. Check both controls individually. In this draft the preset initially supplies 1 day in each Duration cell.

  4. Review the current second duration: The second duration is also 1 day before the next edits.

6. Open the first instruction’s day-range editor

Open the first Duration and select Set a range of days. For this deliberate software validation exercise enter Start 8 and End 7. Read Between 8 and 7 days and observe that Done is disabled. This is a draft validation state, not a submitted order.

  2. Read End 7: The range is reversed for this deliberate validation exercise.
  3. Observe disabled Done: Done cannot apply the reversed 8-to-7 range.

7. Replace the rejected range with 2–3 days

Set the range start to 2 and end to 3, keeping days as the unit. Read Between 2 and 3 days, then select Done. Verify 2–3 days in the first instruction’s Duration cell. Done applies this control’s value to the draft; it does not submit the whole prescription.
