Question:
How are records which are written to the external tables of the eNICQ 6 database imported so they can be viewed in the Patient Log.
Answer:
Data import to eNICQ can be accomplished in two ways:
1) a direct write to the external table, or
2) importing a text file.
This topic describes the process for importing data that has already been written to the external table.
First, click the Advanced (gear) menu and select "External Data Interface."
If data is available for import in the external table, you will see the button "Import External Data Now". This button is hidden when there is no data available in the external table.
Click the button "Import External Data Now" to import your data.
NOTE: Importing data via this method WILL allow access to the field selection, record lock and override functions of External Data Interface.
