SSMT: Discount Type

Description

The Discount Type SSMT content category can be used to assist in managing the Discount Type dictionary in Allscripts Enterprise EHR. This dictionary can typically be managed manually given its nature and relatively small record count.

Stored Procedures used:

• Extracting data: Select EntryCode, EntryName, EntryMnemonic, IsInactiveFlag, 'N' 'Create?' from Discount_Type_DE where ID > 0 order by EntryName
• Loading data: IMPSetSimpleDE 'Discount_Type_DE'
