Updating Verification Lists?
Step-by-step guide for creating and maintaining Verification Lists in SiCompounding.
Overview
Verification Lists are created for Quality Assurance to ensure that a process (Compounding, Master Formula, Patients, etc.) has been verified before continuing.

Summary
- Define clear verification steps that align with your pharmacy's SOPs (Standard Operating Procedures).
- Use descriptive names for verification steps to avoid ambiguity (e.g., "Pharmacist Review" instead of "Check").
- Enable the Witnessed checkbox for critical steps requiring sign-off.
- Regularly review change logs to track modifications and ensure audit compliance.
- Use duplication to quickly create similar verification lists for different processes.
- Keep verification lists updated as your pharmacy's processes evolve.
