| Progress Notes (and Forms and Letters) Templates can
be used to generate a report for a specific encounter. If a template is
designed to print a few fields/rows and is used for all relevant encounters,
it provides an easy way of generating ad hoc reports providing a great deal
of information. The trick is to define a SQL query to select the requisite
encounter IDs. No other field should be selected in the query. Of course,
a basic understanding of the underlying database structure is important,
and as such, this report is best configured by the administrator or Bizmatics support
staff. Option Name: The option as seen in the selection list box by the end user. Report Header: The name of the report as it will be printed. This name can consist of the following predefined tags: <X>: This is the number of days parameter selected for the report. <P>: The selected period for which the report is to be generated. <D>: The specific doctor selected. <A>: The applicable code selected. SQL: The SQL required to generate the report. This can consist of special tags that are appropriately substituted before executing the SQL. The special tags are: [DATE_FROM] The 'From' date defined in the selected period. [DATE_UPTO] The 'Up To' date defined in the selected period. [TODAY] The run date. [TODAY_MINUS_X] The run date minus the 'X' days parameter. [YESTERDAY] The run date minus one day. [THIS_WEEK_START] The start date of the current week. The week is assumed to start on Monday. [THIS_WEEK_END] The last date of the current week. The week is assumed to end on Sunday. [LAST_WEEK_START] The start date of last week. The week is assumed to start on Monday. [LAST_WEEK_END] The last date of last week. The week is assumed to end on Sunday. [THIS_MONTH_START] The start date of the current month. [THIS_MONTH_END] The last date of the current month. [THIS_DOC] The ID of the logged-in Doctor. [SPL_CODE] The entered applicable code. [THIS_PATIENT] The Patient ID selected from the current encounter. [THIS_APPT_ID] The ID of the current appointment. [EXTRA_PARAM] The value to be passed in case of a hyperlinked report. Applicable: Select the appropriate checkbox which will decide what selections a user can make when they select this report to be executed. Default Template: Select the required template to be used as a default when the report is to be generated. Sequence No.: The sequence number in which the report options will be displayed in the list box. |
