Orders

  Level Setting Value Description
XR, XRTR, XRS GENERAL.CheckGroupWhenCombiningOrders Yes, No, Default (No). When linking multiple orders in the same group, copy event fields from the first order only. For example, to avoid duplicating clinical history.
   

Warning:

Although multiple orders in the same event most likely have the same clinical history, it is possible that a referrer could enter different clinical history against different orders. You will not see the second (and subsequent) clinical history if you set this value to Yes.

XR, XRTR, XRS GENERAL.SuppressMultiEpisodesWarning Yes, No. Do not validate episode keys on merged multi-order events. This stops the pop-up message which tells you a patient already has an event with this procedure.

Warning:

It is essential to consider the level of an XR setting when making changes. System and Trust should not be altered without agreement from all stakeholders.

Level Description
XR (System) Changes made here will affect the entire Cris system across all connected trusts.
XRTR (Trust) Changes made here will override XR and affect the whole trust.
XRS (Site) Changes made here will override XRTR and affect the entire hospital / site.
XRT (Terminal) Changes made here will override XRS Setting and only apply to that terminal / workstation.

Note:

When you open the Cris Setup window, you will see that your terminal is highlighted in the directory tree. Therefore, if you change XR settings, they will be applied at Terminal level. If you want XR settings to apply across your Site, Trust, or System, select a higher level folder before making changes.

Tip:

  • Click Open Local XRT to show settings for your current terminal. Clicking Open Local XRT will highlight your terminal in the directory.

  • Click the Reset to Default button to return an XR setting to its default value.

  • Right-click a terminal to delete its XRT (Terminal) settings.

Tip:

Press the Esc key to exit a field without making a selection from an options list.
