The Tasks list displays alerts for several different areas of the electronic record. These alerts can be displayed for the logged-in user or for other users that you have access to through login associations. The Alerts For field defaults to the logged-in user. If needed, use the drop-down to select a different user.

 

NOTE: Any login that is associated with the current user will display in the Alerts For drop-down. For more information on setting up Login Associations, please see the Table Maintenance Control user guide.

 

The view is customizable by user, and multiple types of alerts can be created and added. See the Tasks User Guide for additional details and setup information. The following task types are default options and displayed for users based on their role type. The number of alerts for each category is displayed in parentheses next to the title.

 

Future Orders: Unreleased Future Orders are displayed here for reviewing purposes. Future Orders are entered in the Order Entry application for users/roles with appropriate security. These can be reviewed by using options for Unreleased, Unsigned (phone/verbal orders entered by nursing staff), and date range. For more information on Future Orders, see the Future Orders User Guide.

Electronic Prescriptions: View current and historical electronic prescriptions using options for Type, Date Range, and Status. See the Prescription Entry User Guide for more information.

E-sign (For Providers Only): A way for providers to view, edit, and sign transcribed documents. For more information on this application, please see the Electronic Signature User Guide.

Notes Task List: The Task List displays all of the notes that are drafts, pending cosign, or returned for editing for the user. The Task List is sorted by type: Cosign, Draft, and Return. Notes may be previewed by selecting the check box next to a note or by selecting the note itself. When viewing a note in the preview panel, the options available are the same as they are when previewing a note from the Note List in the Notes application. When a note is viewed, it will display in a yellow highlight. If several notes are viewed, the last note viewed will display with a yellow highlight. For more information on the Notes application, see the Notes User Guide.

Personal Inbox: The logged-in user's messages are displayed here.
