Analytic Reports to Review for EOD:
We recommend scheduling these reports to generate daily, weekly and monthly depending on your hospital’s reporting needs.
- Practice Summary Report
- Transaction Summary Report
- Transaction Details Report
- A/R Summary Report
Staff members that perform the EOD can have access to generate the above reports by creating a User Role containing Permissions for each report. Please refer to the EMR Administrator Guide for details on how to create User Roles.
How to Schedule a Report
After selecting Analytics from the left side bar, check the box next to the report you’d like to schedule (you can select more than one at a time). Click Change Schedule at the top and choose the schedule for the reports.

Once the schedule is saved, these reports will automatically generate so that you can simply select the reports to begin EOD.

Please note that Weekly reports will be generated from the next Sunday – Saturday. Monthly reports will be generated starting on the first day of the next month – so if a monthly report is selected in the middle of October, the next report will cover November 1st – 30th.
