Queries of Report editor

Revision as of 10:51, 18 December 2012

Overview

Report editor main window is essentially divided in three parts:

Group list
Area for queries
Area for query fields.

Group list

From this area can be selected the sub-groups containing the fields necessary to build a query.

If you double-click on a group you will see all available sub-groups .

Double-click on a sub-group and you will see all fields that are available in this sub-group.

On the left, all the tables and fields are placed which you can use for your query:

Patients
Cycles
Examinations / Medical histories
Cryo
Administration
Personell
Referrers

Pull subgroups from the left in the middle pane to build a query.

The symbols before the field name are defined by the corresponding type of data.

Different symbols are:

<img src="/images/F2.png" alt="" width="48" height="41" />	Text fields.	<img src="/images/F7.png" alt="" width="44" height="35" />	Telephone fields.
<img src="/images/F3.png" alt="" width="46" height="40" />	Note fields (text fields of different sizes).	<img src="/images/F8.png" alt="" width="42" height="34" />	QM staff fields.
<img src="/images/F4.png" alt="" width="52" height="40" />	Yes / No fields.	<img src="/images/F9.png" alt="" width="44" height="34" />	QM material fields.
<img src="/images/F5.png" alt="" />	Key fields.	<img src="/images/F10.png" alt="" />	QM free fields.

Area for queries

In this area the sub-groups can be drag&dropped from group list or be deleted in order to build the query tree. The sub-groups are hierarchically ordered as a “Logical cascade”.

<a href="/index.php?title=Result_management"><img style="display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" src="/images/ExecuteRE.png" alt="" width="89" height="38" /></a>	Execute: Executing a query. As soon as you have selected all needed fields you can launch the query by clicking this button. The <a href="/index.php?title=Result_management">Report editor: result window</a> will be open.
<img style="display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" src="/images/NewRE.png" alt="" width="88" height="36" />	New: Clears the contents of the selection window. A new selection can be made.
<a href="/index.php?title=How_to_load_a_query%3F"><img style="display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" src="/images/OpenRE.png" alt="" width="92" height="37" /></a>	Loading a query: A saved query can be simply by clicking on the "Open"-button. A new window, "Saved queries", will pop up. Read more about it <a href="/index.php?title=How_to_load_a_query%3F">here</a>.
<a href="/index.php?title=How_to_save_a_query%3F"><img style="display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" src="/images/SaveRE.png" alt="" width="89" height="83" /></a>	Saving a query: A query can be saved for future use by clicking on "Save"-button. If the query was created from an existing query it can be saved choosing <a href="/index.php?title=How_to_save_a_query%3F">“Save as”</a>. In this way the user can assign to the new query a name different from the parent query.
<img style="display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" src="/images/ResultRE.png" alt="" width="208" height="91" />	Result data records: A selection of shown Results can be chosen here.

Area for query fields

In this area are grouped all the fields belonging to each sub-group that constitutes the query tree. From this area each field can be chosen in order to build the desired query.

Report editor: results

When the query is executed the window showing the list of query’s results will open. All the selected data fields are all represented in individual columns.

You can generally do four things with the query result:

Filter, group or sort the list of results.
Statistically analyze, print or export
Generate letters, work lists or reports

Filter, group or sort the list of results

The list of results may be filtered, grouped and sorted by clicking the column headers as explained <a href="/index.php?title=Welcome_to_MedITEX_IVF#Managing_Lists">here</a>. The filtering corresponds to a logical restriction of the data sets displayed in the list of results (e. g. only the pregnant patients of all, etc.).

Statistically analyze, print or export

The results can be easily analyzed and used to build charts. Moreover the results can be print or exported as Excel, CSV, HTML, TXT, PDF and XML file.

Generate letters, work lists or reports

The results can be used to build standard templates of letters, reports or working lists. Such reports may be made available for user in other sections of the software such as Administration, Medical History etc.
