ThePractitioner provides a very powerful reporting mechanism with
in-depth query capabilities. Quite a few reports are pre designed in the package
and you also have access to the Query, Sort and Report editors
which allow you to generate your own report. Derived reports can be saved to
disk for future use.
Customised Reports
Reports that are provided via the menus and / or the dialog windows are
specifically customized for each installation, and the ones that are supplied
in the initial package should be taken as a suggested set only. Alternatives to
these would normally be requested for the final program and would probably be
provided quickly for a minimal fee, if any, depending on the requirements.
The following reports are provided :-
Inquiries These provide several quick information screens on the
database.
Business Clinic Revenues / Consultations Statistics by Clients,
Guarantors, Referrers, Solicitors and Staff / Unaccounted Consultations /
Accounts Due, Overdue and Receivable / Payments by Type.
Financial Bank Deposits Listings / Consolidated Deposits / Accounting
Codes / Payments to be Banked.
Clinical Consultations / Conditions / Consultations by Conditions /
Clients by Conditions.
Graphical Referrer Consultations / Guarantor Clients / Clients
Consultations / Staff Treatments / Staff and Clinic Revenues / Weekly Takings
/ Database Information. Any graphical data may also be exported.
User Derived Reporting
The package's included report generator allows you to develop and save reports
specific to your own operations. Many enclosed Label, Report and Sort
definitions are sourced from actual users of ThePractitioner. They are
supplied as is, and have not been checked for their functionality or suitability
for your practice. Nevertheless, since they have been derived for working
practices, they should be of some use to others and they are included here in
the Macintosh spirit of sharing and co-operation. You may therefore use a
report as is, or use it as a base to generate a more comprehensive report. These
can be found in a separate folder and the document About Reports outlines
the reports provided.
Report names start with a code which corresponds to the tables within the
database. This helps you in finding reports which are applicable to the table
you wish to use the Report Editor on. For example: client codes are
P/nnn, so reports such as "P/Names+Code" and "P/FileTags" would be employed on
the client table while "G\Stocktake" would be used on the goods table where
goods codes are G\nnn, and consultations with a code of V/nnn would make use of
reports such as "V/Total" and "V/$xClient".
Important Since many of these report definitions have been created on
computers using different printers and operating systems, any that you decide to
access should immediately be re-paginated via the Page Setup command, and
re-directed to select your preferred printer. Failure to reconfigure may cause
output problems. Opening report definitions for one table while accessing
anothertable can lead to meaningless and / or misleading report outputs.
