The present invention is directed to a method of dispensing or administering medications which requires prompting the user for a reason if the user wants to dispense or intends to administer a medication that is not on the patient's medication profile. For example, a patient may be in severe discomfort, or some other condition exists, that requires dispensing and administration of a medication not approved by a pharmacist for the patient. The method prompts the user to supply a reason (exception) for the dispensing or administering that can be used to create an audit trail. The method may include identifying a patient, accessing a medication profile for the identified patient, selecting a medication for the identified patient, the selected medication not having been reviewed against the patient's medication profile, prompting the user to identify an exception, and reviewing the exception to determine its acceptability. If the exception is acceptable, access to a dispensing apparatus' storage compartment(s) for the purpose of dispensing the medication may be granted and a record of the dispensing event is created, or the healthcare giver may administer the medication and a record of the administration is created. If the exception is not acceptable, a record of the request to dispense or the request to administer is created. The method may further include transferring the override requests and override events to a database containing pharmacy orders. The requests, events, and orders may be sorted according to a predetermined criterion, and presented to a pharmacist for review.

A numerical control system according to claim 1, further comprising: a setting means (22) for setting correlations between the movable shaft (32) and a plurality of motion modules (31) into the movable-shaft correlation table (40). 3. A numerical control system according to claim 1, further comprising: a failure sensing means (36) for sensing a failure of the motion modules (31); a servo-off execution commanding means (37) for providing a servo-off command that executes servo-off of a defective motion module (31) when the failure is sensed; and a motion-module disconnecting means (38) for disconnecting the defective motion module (31). 4. A numerical control system according to claim 3, wherein the servo-off execution commanding means (37) executes the servo-off of the defective motion module (31) and brings the defective motion module (31) into a free-running state. 5. A numerical control system according to claim 3, further comprising: a disconnectable shaft number setting table (50) for setting a number of disconnectable motion modules (31) every movable shaft (32) that is moved by a plurality of motion modules (31); and an alarm outputting means (12, 13) for outputting an alarm when a number of the motion modules (31), which are disconnected since the failure is caused therein, exceeds a value that is stored in the disconnectable shaft number setting table (50). 6. A shaft control method in a numerical control system comprising the steps of: obtaining a moving command given in unit of the movable shaft (32) based on a machining program (1); converting the moving command into individual moving commands of a plurality of motion modules (31), which move the movable shaft (32), based on a movable-shaft correlation table (40); and controlling respective motion modules (31) based on individual converted moving commands of the motion modules (31).
