Topics Attach Center Search:  
Introduction: The Attach Center screen allows clinic to attach documents received by fax or E-mail at the right place in PrognoCIS. The left side of the Attach Center screen shows a Select Folder dropdown list. Below it, the list of files in the selected folder are displayed with checkboxes. The Attach To section displays the options to attach the file. The Right Hand Side shows the selected file's preview. All received faxes are stored in a default directory as specified in the Fax set up. This directory name must be specified in the property prognocis.attach.folders so that Prognocis can read all files. After a file has been attached, it will be deleted from the default directory.

Note: Billing and EOB are applicable only when Billing is turned On.
