# Order Builds: Configure Route, Blinding, and Dispensing Instructions

## Configure routes, blinding options, and dispensing instructions to support consistent documentation and protocol compliance.

[**Back to the Order Build Overview**](https://vestigohelp.mccreadiegroup.com/en/knowledgebase/protocol-order-build-overview?hsLang=en)

 

The route, blinding, and instruction settings help define how information is presented during the dispensing process and on dispensing labels. These options allow sites to configure administration details, protect blinded studies, and provide standardized directions, special instructions, and accountability documentation. Proper use of these settings can improve consistency, support protocol compliance, and ensure pharmacy staff have the information needed at the time of dispense.

### Required permissions

**ProtocolSnapshot** - Ability to view the Summary page of a Protocol (Protocol Snapshot). Required for all other protocol view permissions.

**ProtocolManagement** - Protocol Management

**EditProtocolDrugsOrders** - Drug management for a protocol

 

 

### Route

The route of the order. The selection here is defaulted during dispensing but can be modified during dispensing.

Route selections populate based on the approved [Routes of Administration](https://www.fda.gov/drugs/data-standards-manual-monographs/route-administration) from the FDA.

**Note** - Edits to the Route do not impact historical prescriptions where the order was used.

 

### Order Blinding Settings

Users can blind the quantity or lot numbers on labels. If your dispensing labels include the calculated quantity or lot numbers and there are differences between one drug and another, you can blind the values on the labels to maintain the blind.

These settings do require some label modifications. If these settings are checked and you are still seeing the lot or quantity on the label, please open a ticket with support using the Contact Us for Support at the top of the page.

**Note** - Edits to the blinding do not impact historical prescriptions where the order was used.

 

### Directions

The default directions or sig for the label.  If you have templates built, you can use the drop down to populate. The max number of characters in this field is 500 characters.

During dispensing, users can keep or modify the default Directions.

![](https://vestigohelp.mccreadiegroup.com/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-Oct-01-2026-03-31-10-6199-PM.png?width=670&height=91&name=image-png-Oct-01-2026-03-31-10-6199-PM.png)

**Note** - Edits to the Directions do not impact historical prescriptions where the order was used.

 

### Special Instructions

The default special instructions for the label. Sites will need to determine if or how they want to use this field. If you have templates built, you can use the drop down to populate. The max number of characters in this field is 500 characters.

During dispensing, users can keep or modify the Special Instructions.

![](https://vestigohelp.mccreadiegroup.com/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-Oct-01-2026-03-32-30-3505-PM.png?width=670&height=94&name=image-png-Oct-01-2026-03-32-30-3505-PM.png)

**Note** - Edits to the Special Instruction do not impact historical prescriptions where the order was used.

 

### Accountability Log Comments

This field is optional, but you can pre populate text in this field that will pull into the dispense. If you have templates built, you can use the drop down to populate.

Any information or comments entered for dispense will display on the DARF below the dispense. 

During dispensing, users can keep, modify, or remove any accountability log comments.

**Note** - Edits to the Accountability Log Comments do not impact historical prescriptions where the order was used.
