4) Select by character: leftmost character used
[first/last name, company, city]
If you wish to select only those records that BEGIN with the letter or ì
letters your enter, then this selection will retrieve those records that ì
start with the leftmost character or characters you requested.
=== Note on logic of address line one: ===
The program will attempt to sort first by street, then by number. ì
Specifically, this report looks for the first blank space and then assumes ì
that the characters to the left are the street numbers while the characters ì
to the right are the street name. Let's say, for example, that you had ì
entered these lines for address line one in three records:
'1103 Elm Street'
'152 Elm Street'
'5 Elm Street'
The report would see the first space in '1103 Elm Street' and would split ì
out '1103' as the street number and 'Elm Street' as the street name. All ì
records would then be sorted first by street name, then by street number.

Option 2 generates one report from the Activity file. You have eight ì
selections to choose from:
1 = Activity report sorted by Company Name, no Form Feed
[without address]
2 = Activity report sorted by date activity created
3 = Activity report sorted by city, then date created
4 = Activity report sorted by state, then date created
5 = Activity report sorted by zip, then date created
6 = Activity report sorted by Area Code, then date created
7 = Activity report sorted by Company Name, with Form Feed
8 = Activity report sorted by Company Name, no Form Feed
[with address]
9 = Activity report sorted by callback date, if any.

| OPTION 3: |
==============
Option 3 is to change the start or stop date of the summary. It defaults to
these dates:
START DATE :'01/01/1901'
STOP DATE :'12/12/2999'
This means that any summaries that you generate will be for a 999 year ì
period. Let's say that you would like to examine activities for a two week ì
period, during which you were on the road visiting a Patient. In that case, ì
go to option 3 and enter the date on which the two week period began as the ìèSTART date, and the date on which the two week period ended as the END ì
date. Now your reports will reflect just that two week period.
[Note: The date selection feature refers to when the records was ì
originally entered into the system.]

Category Consolidation:
At this option, you can base your reports on either a range of categories ì
or a list of non-continuous individual categories . For example, if you ì
had selected a range, then you could combine all records from categories 1 ì
through 50. You can select any size range, from a range of 50 to a range ì
of 50,000 categories. If you had selected to input a non-continuous list ì
of categories, then you could enter up to 200 categories for consolidation, ì
such as to combine categories 10, 11, 15, and 20.
Note that this Category Consolidation logic is available in these three ì
locations in the program:
'Reports for Patients and Activities'
[Main Program Menu, Selection 3]
-----> where you are now <-------
'Appointments Menu'
[Main Program Menu, Selection 7]
'Base Station/Remote Site Consolidation Menu'

==============
"7) Create 'cascading' Report [multi-level,dynamic sort]"
[Patient File]
With this selection, you can define the number of sorts in a report and ì
enter those selected in any order you wish. Here is the order of sorts ì
and the codes as displayed within option 7:
=========================================================================
|
In selecting the order of sorts, observe the following codes: |
|
0 = sort list completed [entered last] 6 = sort by phone
1 = sort based on company name [no Form Feed] 7 = sort by state
2 = sort by last name 8 = sort by zip code
3 = sort by first name 9 = sort by 'referred by'
4 = sort by city 10 = sort by address, line 1
5 = sort by category 11 = sort by priority |
12 = sort by company name |
[with Form Feed] |
=========================================================================
Let's say that you want list all records by state. Within each state, you ì
wish to see the zip codes in ascending order. To create this you would ì
select these two codes: '7' then '8'.
The program then creates a 'cascading' index and gives you the option to ì
either print or to send to 'VIEW.TXT'.
Another example would be if you want to see all priorities. Within each ì
priority, let's say, would be ordered all zip codes. Within each zip code, ì
in turn, would be records sorted by first name. Here are the codes to ì
enter, and in this order:
'11', then '8', followed by '3'
Upon completing this selection, you can also invoke the Counter option, ì
whereby you identify and count how many items are within any one sort.
==============
| OPTION 8: |
==============
"8) Graph date of entry"è
You can select a graphical image of the data of entry for the two main ì
files.
Your choices are:
1 = Patient file
2= ACTIVITY file
Option 8 displays a graphics image of bars and symbols to show you what the ì
date of entry was for records you had entered for any 14 day period.
This option is intended as display-only, unless you have a graphics printer ì
to which you "dump" the image by pressing [SHIFT] [PRINTSCREEN].
