Topics under evaluation for 2017

[Kelly Ordiway]

TOPIC TITLE: TAT reports
------------------------------------------------
REASONS TO ADD THE TOPIC: Template for TAT reports where user defines tests, limit, ward, site if applicable, Order to Rec and/or Rec to verify. Once data is captured would like to see visual graphs.

TOPIC TITLE: List aggregate function
------------------------------------------------
REASONS TO ADD THE TOPIC: We would like the list aggregate function to be selectively available in SoftReports as a function. For results with multiple rows, this allows report writers to display the entire result in a single line. This makes viewing these results on a spreadsheet much easier for users who will be analyzing the data from the report.

TOPIC TITLE: Subreport Usage for Reports for non-Imbedded Queries
------------------------------------------------
REASONS TO ADD THE TOPIC: I would like the option to use the Layout Toolbox feature "SubReport" with a non-imbedded query report.
Our users request several complex calculations in a report and also want to view the details in the same report.
If we use an Imbedded Report that's easy to configure with the current system setup. However often our users request reports with well over 100 000 lines of details and the Imbedded Query reports fail as the data output causes an overflow. Therefore we must use a query linked to the layout.
SCC has told us that in these cases we cannot use the SubReport Toolbox tool in the Layout associated to the query.
Please program the Subreport functionality in the Layout for non-Imbedded Reports.

(LAB) TOPIC TITLE: Move orders Report
------------------------------------------------
REASONS TO ADD THE TOPIC: Our client support dept would like to be able to monitor all orders that have been moved from one stay to another on a given day or date range . Would like it to include Order #, Patient Name, MRN, Billing#, Ward ( Moved From .. To .. ) Looking for something that can be used for monitoring by general users rather than having to search through audit trails .

TOPIC TITLE: Hide EPHI on Instant Reports.
------------------------------------------------
REASONS TO ADD THE TOPIC: Create report option that would automatically remove patient identifiers from SCC IRs. This would eliminate risk of EPHI being released mistakenly during reports/system validation.
Similar to sensitive results reporting.
Ideally this could be done in query as well.

TOPIC TITLE: Soft Reports - Generating reports
------------------------------------------------
REASONS TO ADD THE TOPIC: Ability to use comments in SQL statements (for Oracle, this would be either the – comment at the end of the line or the /* inline comment */ format). Very useful for helping maintain complex queries (we have several moderately complex queries)

(LAB) TOPIC TITLE: Soft Reports - Setup Menu > Query and Report Formats
------------------------------------------------
REASONS TO ADD THE TOPIC: The ability to Batch Add test components to a specific report format category. Currently we have to choose test components individually – this is fine if a report section has just a few components. On the other hand, adding individually can cost a great deal of time if several components are involved.
