Clinical Work Station (Changed)

Use

The Clinical Work Station has new functions, which make it easier to set up and manage Work Environments:

  • Managing Work Environments
  • Copying Work Environments, Views and Variants
  • Saving a Layout as the Standard Layout
  • Enhancing the Interface from User Exit SAPLN1WP
  • Maintain Work Environment: Planning/Initiating Organizational Unit (OU)
  • Manually Entering Selection Criteria in all View Types

The following is a detailed description of these new functions. You can find documentation concerning the application and administration in the SAP Library for the SAP Patient Management area under IS-H/IS-H*MED -> IS-H Hospital -> Basic Data -> Clinical Work Station and for IS-H*MED under IS-H/IS-H*MED -> IS-H*MED Clinical System -> Clinical Work Station.

Managing Work Environments

The Manage Work Environments function allows you to make all settings, which you require for the management of work environments, views, and variants, directly on the clinical work station. You can also assign work environments to users and roles. You no longer need to maintain work environment - user/role assignments using the transaction N10W; from this release this function is available to the clinical work station.

You will find the Manage Work Environments function on the clinical work station under Settings -> Manage Work Environments. This will open a list which contains all work environments defined in the current client.

Using New Assignment you can assign a work environment to one or more users or to a role.

Using Select Entries Without Users you can search for work environments which are not assigned to any users or roles and delete them, if they are no longer required.

Note that there is also a copy function for work environments.

You can edit a work environment using the View for Work Environment function. This opens the work environment definition dialog box. You can find a description of this dialog box in the SAP Library under IS-H/IS-H*MED -> IS-H Hospital -> Basic Data -> Clinical Work Station -> Clinical Work Station: Setup -> Setup Functions for System Administrators -> Creating Work Environments.

To transport the settings in the work environment and new work environments, you use the transport function in the Manage Work Environments dialog box. You can find a description of this transport functionality in the SAP Library under IS-H/IS-H*MED -> IS-H Hospital -> Basic Data -> Clinical Work Station -> Clinical Work Station: Setup -> Setup Functions for System Administrators -> Transporting Work Environments.

Note: The transport behavior of the clinical work station has been enhanced by the Manage Work Environments function. In one step you can transport several work environments and simultaneously add the assignments to roles and users to the transport request.

The Manage Work Environments function is only available to users with variant management authorization.

Copying Work Environments, Views and Variants

From the current release we have simplified the creation of new variants: You can now use the copy function which is available on the clinical work station. You can find Copy Work Environment in the Manage Work Environment function. You can use the copy function in three different ways.

  • Copy Work Environment - Leave Views and Variants

Here you assign the views and variants which were assigned to work environment originally selected, to the new work environment. You should use this method if wish to quickly distribute the defined view to all care units and outpatient clinics.
  • Copy Work Environment and View - Leave Variant

Here, the system will only use the variant in the new views, the views and work environments will be recreated.
  • Copy Work Environment, View and Variant

When you select one of these options, you enter the name of the new work environment.

You should note that although this copy function simplifies the creation of work environments, views and variants, it becomes more difficult to maintain them.

Example: You will often need to adjust function variants. This will require you to rename functions in the menu bar, add new functions in function variants, etc. If your system contains many function variants, you will need to adjust them all, in order to ensure uniform function descriptions. If you reuse function variants, you only need to make the changes in one function variant.

Saving a Layout as a Standard Layout

The authorization to change work environments and views also includes the possibility of defining a standard layout for a view.

The system behavior in the current release has changed as follows: Each time you exit a view, the system will save any changes made to the layout as a personal layout. If you wish to define a changed layout as the standard layout for the view, you select Settings -> Save Layout as Standard.

Business Add-In (BAdI) for Designing the View Title

You can find information on this BAdI in release notes View on Clinical Work Station: Changing the Title (New).

Interface Enhancement of SAP Enhancement SAPLN1WP (Arrivals, Departures, Occupancy)

Using this SAP enhancement you can fill columns in view types and also trigger your own functions. You can find further information on this subject in the SAP Library under IS-H/IS-H*MED -> IS-H Hospital -> Basic Data -> Clinical Work Station -> Clinical Work Station: Setup -> Setup Functions for System Administrators -> Extend Field List in all View Types (Arrivals, Departures, Occupancy).

We have enhanced the import parameter for this SAP enhancement by adding the selection variant of the currently active view. In the components EXIT_SAPLN1WP_001 and EXIT_SAPLN1WP_002, you will find the transfer table T_SELVAR, where the system stores the selection parameters of the view. Within this enhancement you can access the organizational unit, the time and also other values.

Maintain Work Environment: Planning/Initiating Organizational Unit (OU)

The planning/initiating OU has been available since the Add-On Support Package 06 for Release 4.63. You can find the interpretation and description of the function in the SAP note 503091 2001.

In the following you will find various further information:

Using the variant management function on the clinical work station you make views available to several organizational units. You can either use a coordinating unit, or enter several organizational units in the selection variants of a view.

When you use scheduling functions like the preregistration and the planning grid to schedule first or follow-up visits, you will always need to enter the planning (can be the initiating OU or, for example. a Call Center) or initiating OU. You wish to prevent any department from preregistering treatments in other departments and scheduling patients.

If you select and preregister an existing patient in a view, then the assignment of this patient to an OU is defined from the movement or request. If, however, you preregister and schedule a new patient, whose identity will not be known until the appointment or the preregistration, the system cannot uniquely identify the planning or initiating OU.

To solve this problem, a planning/initiating OU has been available in the work environment since Add-On Support Package 06 for Release 4.63.

This OU is used in the following functions (whenever no patient is selected in a view):

  • Create Preregistration
  • Appointment - Initial Visit
  • Appointment - Follow-Up Visit
  • Preregistration List (in all variations)
  • Schedule Appointment

Manually Entering Selection Criteria in all View Types

The clinical work station uses the selection criteria from the variant management, to display the patients of a care unit or outpatient clinic in a view. The system will only display the currently active selection criteria, or offer them for editing, in two situations:

  • If the user selects Change Selection
  • If a required entry field is missing in the selection variant

From Release 4.63B onwards, a third possibility exists:

  • The Manually Enter Selection Criteria indicator is available in every view. If you have checked this, the system will display the selection dialog box and the currently selected selection criteria each time you call the view.
You can, for example, define a document view in such a way that you an freely select documents. Whenever you wish to search for the documents of a patient, who is currently no longer on the care unit, you can then use this view.

Effects on Existing Data

Effects on Data Transfer

Effects on System Administration

In some circumstances, selection variants which were defined for the clinical work station in a release before 4.63B, may not be applicable under 4.63B. You can whether this is the case as changing the selection variants in "Change View" will no longer function correctly. (Error message: "Variant & of program & is outdated").

SAP have provided a conversion program, if you wish to reuse the selection variants. You should refer to the information in SAP note 65343 for more details.

The Change Work Environment - User (Role) Assignment function (transaction N10W) is no longer available in the SAP Easy Access menu. You should change your user menus accordingly.
