Professional List

Run a Professional List report to obtain a list of active professional records (i.e. pedodontist, oral surgeon, pediatrician) you have created. The report includes the professional and practice name, contact information, user-defined text and dates you have included in their record, and their birthday. You can choose specific professional types to include, or run the report for all professionals in your system. Only active records are included in the report: Any items flagged Inactive in the editor are omitted.

Click to OpenReport Data Sources

This report obtains its data and calculations from the following areas of your Edge Cloud system.

Click to OpenContact Details

The Professional List report includes the details for the email and work phone contact styles only. In order for Edge Cloud to recognize this information accurately, you must use the Contact Categories editor to assign a category to the "Email" style, and to the "Work Phone" style. Then, be sure to use those categories when entering contact information in professional records. Other contact information in the professional record will be ignored by the Professional List report. See "Contact Categories Editor" for details.

Click to OpenProfessional Records

Use the Professional editor to create and maintain records for the consulting and treating professionals, such as oral surgeons, pedodontists, and periodontists, that work with your patients. Each record includes the professional's name, practice name, address, phone number, several user-defined fields, correspondence history, list of patient assigned to this professional, and a notepad you can use to add additional information. You can optionally include a photograph in each record. See "Create Professional Records" for details.
