+From version 4.10, prescribers will have a //home store// like patients (see the [[dispensing:patients#home_store|10.03. Patients]] page for details), which will be the current store for new prescribers or the store with the most recent prescription (assigned during the version upgrade):
   * A prescriber can only be edited in any dispensary store which is active on the same site as the home store (i.e. on their **Home site**). This ensures that it can only be edited in one location at a time
-  * In version 4.10 and 4.11, a prescriber's //home store// cannot be changed. However, from version 4.12 it will be possible to edit the home store (if you're logged into the primary server). Doing this will make the prescriber available to the new home site. If the prescriber has previous prescriptions from stores which are visible in the new home store, these will also be made available to the new home site, but will only show up in a patient's history if the //Share patient prescriptions over stores// preference is turned on (see [[dispensing:dispensary_mode#setting_dispensary_mode_preferences|]])
