Function documentationManual Sorting of Orders for Chart Display

 

You can use the Manual Sorting function for the chart display to manually sort the orders for each patient. Manual sorting displays all orders which were valid for the patient in the selection period, regardless of their current status or other properties. A manual sorting will remain active for the patient until it is re-sorted or lifted. An active manual sorting overrides the chart layout in which it was created and applies to all users who view the orders of the patient with the same chart layout.

Note Note

You can use the business add-in (BAdI) ISHMED_ME_ORD_HIST to enhance the selection for the chart progress of the medication order. See Customer-Specific Enhancements for Medication
