Order Account Default Logic Rules

This rule provides a way to default the account number for an order.

To activate this rule, you must:

  • enter an allowed value into the FO_Users.AccountLogic field.

The allowed values and their behaviors for the FO_Users.AccountLogic field are in the table below. Use a Rhodes recommended value as needed and described below.

Recommended setting if a client ID will always be used.

Defaults the account number to the Patient ID + Ordering Physician ID + Collection Date + Order BillTo + Client ID

(The two behaviors listed here call for different values to create the account number. What is correct?)

(does this mean the user needs to enter the account number?? so the field will be enabled for data entry/editing?? and will it be a required field??)

 

(The allowed values and behaviors above were gathered from the FO_Users.AccountLogic field table notes and the Order Account Default Logic Rules content.

Need to make sure the behaviors described above are correct. When the behaviors are correct(ed), will move this list to the FO_Users.AccountLogic field table notes.)

 

See FO_Users for more information about field definitions and allowed values.
