Description
The Distribution Type dictionary contains entries that support document Printing workflows. Specifically, it indicates the manner in which the document should be distributed (Print, Fax or via Task). This dictionary is delivered with standard entries, but custom entries can all be added. Changes to this dictionary would need to be supported by code, therefore, it is not advisable to add entries.
Definition
- Code - The Code is a unique identifier that must be supplied. This is not displayed in the product and is used for identification purposes only.
- Name - This is the name that will appear for the end users in the EHR application. This should be unique to prevent confusion.
- Mnemonic - This is not required, but it used as a secondary identifier. This does not appear in the product and unless you have another use for it, the recommendation would be to make this the same as the code.
- Inactive - The inactive flag allows you to inactivate or hide an entry.
- Enforced - The enforced flag designates whether a dictionary item is required and cannot be changed. In most cases, this comes predefined by Allscripts and should not be selected for new entries. If an entry is enforced, it cannot be modified or inactivated.
