What information must be recorded upon receiving a delivery through the CSOS?

When a delivery of controlled substances is received through the Controlled Substance Ordering System (CSOS), it is essential to maintain accurate records for compliance with federal and state regulations. The requirement to document the date received and the quantity ensures that the pharmacy can track and verify its inventory against what has been ordered. This accountability is critical for preventing discrepancies and potential misuse of controlled substances.

The date received provides a clear timeline for when the substances were delivered, which is important for auditing and for regulatory inspections. Documenting the quantity received is equally important, as it helps verify that the correct amount of medication has been delivered in line with what was ordered and what is legally permissible to handle. Accurate recording of both pieces of information is vital for maintaining proper inventory records and aiding in the overall management of controlled substances, ensuring compliance with legal standards.

The other choices, while they may seem relevant, do not meet the specific record-keeping requirements established by regulations governing controlled substances.
