--- title: Sign Discharge Medications and Load to Usual Scripts in Profile slug: portal-sub/sign-discharge-medications-and-load-to-usual-scripts-in-profile docTags: createdAt: 2026-03-04T12:03:17.925Z --- # Article Overview & Feature Requirements This article covers how Administrators or Clinicians can sign discharge medications in the **Discharge Reconciliation **view and load them into the **Usual Scripts **view. Since the patient is leaving the facility, future prescriptions are prescribed from the **Usual Scripts **view rather than from the **MedChart** view. This action is performed by a user with prescribing authority who can confirm that: - The list of discharge medications is correct AND - The list should be uploaded under **Usual Scripts** in the patient's Medical Record, replacing the existing usual scripts. ## Feature Requirements - Profile version 10.0.8 or higher - MedChart should be enabled by adding the Medications licensed module. - Role granted: **Sign Discharge Medication/Load to Usual Scripts** (See [Enable and Disable Discharge Reconciliation Actions in Profile](docId\:YYC5Bqk-UoD9HujA_SSQI) for instructions on how an Administrator would grant this role.) - The medications have been [loaded from the MedChart view into the Discharge Reconciliations view](docId\:WeTqGnlcPXVu8uzxYKVoi) and any needed [edits to the list of medications](docId:5yuqihYLbKiRPv3m_OwUq) have been completed. # Sign Discharge Medications and Load to Usual Scripts ## Steps To sign medications in the **Discharge Reconciliation** view and load them to the Usual Scripts view: 1. Open up the Medical Record for the applicable patient. 2. Select **MedChart **on the left-hand side. The MedChart view is selected by default.  3. Select the **Discharge Reconciliation** view. 4. Click on **Sign and Upload**.(This option is visible *only if* the **Sign Discharge Medication/Load to Usual Scripts **role has been [granted](docId\:YYC5Bqk-UoD9HujA_SSQI).) ::Image[]{src="https://api.qa.archbee.co/api/optimize/zICxj0dnLereb6UUrBA3-/DmjeC02NZj3E9_G_RQeyz_keizblhszpbfy-7gvtaljsjsobbblxpq.png" size="100" isUploading="false" initialPath="assets/KeIZblHsZPbf_Y-7GVtAlJ_SjsoBBblxPQ.png" githubPath="en/Medication Management/Inpatient Medications/Discharge Reconciliation/assets/KeIZblHsZPbf_Y-7GVtAlJ_SjsoBBblxPQ.png" position="flex-start" showCaption="false" indent="2"} 5.

The comment "Replaced with Discharge scripts" indicates the reason for discontinuing the scripts. ::Image[]{src="https://api.qa.archbee.co/api/optimize/zICxj0dnLereb6UUrBA3-/ldIhDF6HQRSHM7ANT6kEo_vqflbnic7gsoq8s5tnpmik1ildttgz116g.png" size="100" isUploading="false" initialPath="assets/vqfLbNIC7gSoQ8s5TnpMIK1ildTtgz116g.png" githubPath="en/Medication Management/Inpatient Medications/Discharge Reconciliation/assets/vqfLbNIC7gSoQ8s5TnpMIK1ildTtgz116g.png" position="flex-start" showCaption="false" indent="2"} Now that the Discharge Medications are in **Usual Scripts**, they can be prescribed in the usual way during an outpatient Encounter. :::hint{type="info"} **Note: **After clicking **Sign**, the lists of medications in the **Discharge Reconciliation **view and the **MedChart **view remain uncleared.
