User-to-user transfer of controlled substances by anesthesia providers

Do you have your Pyxis/Omnicell/ADC set up to allow user-to-user transfer of controlled substances by anesthesia providers in the OR? E.g. CRNA John pulls fentanyl 100 mcg for an OR case, does not give any to the patient and then goes to lunch. He signs out the med to CRNA Sally in Pyxis.

Thanks,
