Function documentationCustomizing Functions for the Request

 

As the system administrator you must enter the basic data and settings necessary for the clinical order in the system.

You can enter and manage the necessary basic data in the implementation guide under Start of the navigation path Industry-Specific Component Clinical System Next navigation step Service Management Next navigation step Requests End of the navigation path.

To be able to request services, you must store services in the service range of the corresponding treatment organizational unit (OU). You can find further information in SAP Easy Access under Start of the navigation path Clinical System Next navigation step Clinical Basic Data Next navigation step Service Management Next navigation step Clinical Service Master Next navigation step Service Range End of the navigation path.

Note Note

It does not matter whether you add the service to the service range directly or indirectly via a superordinate group service.

With regard to services, this can be the surgery service to be executed, or a universally used surgery service which is specified by a verbally formulated text or the entered diagnosis.

You must flag every service which you wish to request as requestable in the service master. This results from the communication process between the initiating and treatment OU.

End of the note.

Prerequisites

Requests must already be in use in your system, so that you only add new request types.

The following set up functions already exist:

  • Define number range for requests

  • Maintain request status

  • Maintain priorities

  • Maintain transport types

  • Maintain degrees of infection

You can find detailed information in the implementation guide under Start of the navigation path Industry-Specific Component Clinical System Next navigation step Service Management Next navigation step Requests End of the navigation path.

Features

The following set up functions include the necessary basic data and/or enhancement possibilities for a request type:

  • Set up number ranges for requests

    The number range for each request type is used to allocate request numbers in the request. You must provide each request type with a separate number range. You can define several intervals for a request type.

    Note Note

    You can only define internal number ranges.

    You can find detailed information in the implementation guide under Start of the navigation path Industry-Specific Component Clinical System Next navigation step Service Management Next navigation step Requests Next navigation step Number Ranges per Request Type End of the navigation path.

    End of the note.

  • Assign interval to number range object

    You assign an interval to the number range object of the request type. Only one number range interval can be active at any one time.

    You can find detailed information in the implementation guide under Start of the navigation path Industry-Specific Component Clinical System Next navigation step Service Management Next navigation step Requests Next navigation step Assign Interval to Number Range Object End of the navigation path.

  • Define request types

    The request type defines forms in the system for the service request.

    See Request Type.

You can also define the appearance of the selection list for request types. The selection list displays request types, order types, clinical orders, and request profiles.

  • Selection list: Set up tab pages

    When creating a request you receive a selection list of request and order types. You can structure the selection list with tab pages.

    Caution Caution

    The system parameter N1VKGTPA must be set in order for the dialog box with the selection list to appear. If the system parameter is not set you can only create clinical orders or use the Enter Received Request function.

    You can find detailed information in the implementation guide under Start of the navigation path Industry-Specific Component Clinical System Next navigation step Service Management Next navigation step Requests Next navigation step Set Up Tab Pages for Request Hit List End of the navigation path.

    End of the caution.

  • Selection list: Assign tab pages to requesting OUs

    You must determine which of the previously created tab pages should be available to a requesting OU in the selection list of request and order types.

    You can find detailed information in the implementation guide under Start of the navigation path Industry-Specific Component Clinical System Next navigation step Service Management Next navigation step Requests Next navigation step Assign Tab Pages to Requesting Organizational Units End of the navigation path.

Parameters for the Request

You can enter the following parameters for the settings in the request: As requests and clinical orders are parallel constructions, clinical order parameters also have an effect on the request.

  • System Parameters

    You set the system parameters in the Implementation Guide under Start of the navigation path Industry-Specific Component Clinical System Next navigation step Basic Settings Next navigation step System Parameters Next navigation step Overall Maintenance End of the navigation path.

    • N1VKGTPA

      You use this system parameter to control whether the system should generally display the order type selection list when creating a request/clinical order. The selection list must be displayed when creating requests, in order to be able to select a request type.

    • N1CORDER

      The system parameter N1CORDER defines whether you use only clinical orders, only requests, or both for a system.

  • Organizational unit-related parameters (OU parameters)
