Start Origin Report

Run the Start Origin report to obtain a list of patients for any range of start dates, grouped by Start Origin. You may include all start origin descriptions, or choose to include only specific descriptions on the report. Each section of the report lists the patient names and ID numbers, as well as the treatment phases and start dates for that start origin. Because the report looks at all treatment phase start dates within the range you specify, not just your patients' current start dates, patients may be included in the report multiple times.

Click to OpenReport Data Source

This report gets its data from the Start Date and Start Origin fields found on the Findings tab of the patient folder: You must maintain this data for all patients to ensure the accuracy of the report. The report looks at the start date for each treatment phase the patient has ever been in, not just the current treatment.

Click to OpenOpen the Report

Select Reporting from the Reporting section of the Home ribbon bar. Then from the Patient section, open the Start Origin report. You can double-click the report name, or click Run at the top of the window to continue. (You can also use the Search field to find the report you want to work with.) You might also be able to run this report or form from your Recent Reports or Quick Reports list. See "Run Edge Cloud Reports" for details.

Orthodontist / DoctorClosed - Choose to include only the records for a specific orthodontist / doctor, or include the records for all orthodontists in your practice.

SubgroupClosed - You can optionally choose a subgroup to use to narrow the records to include on the report. Only records that fit your selected subgroup as well as all other report settings will be included. If you use a subgroup, the report will display the name of your selected subgroup just under the report name, so you know which criteria was used to generate the results. See "Subgroup Editor" for details.about creating subgroups.
