Communication of ADC Stock Status within EMR

we are curious to know how others communicate medication storage location (stocked in ADC or not) to nursing staff to minimize medication delays, miscommunications, and non-value added work. Are staff able to see within the EMR if an ordered medication is stocked in the ADC? Has anyone been able to add a notification in Cener to signify that a particular mediation is stocked in Pyxis? We would love to hear your approach form other Cerner/Pyxis sites.
Thank you.
