Approval Transaction APF
New patients, added in Registration and included in a Registration Links transmission, are classed as Unacknowledged Acceptances, see Unacknowledged Acceptances (Frozen Patients) for details. An Acceptance Transaction is generated to the TP.
An incoming Approval Transaction (APF) a few days later from the TP unfreezes the patient's Registration record and automatically updates the patient’s registration status from Applied to Permanent.
Approval Transactions can be viewed in Completed Transactions.
Note - In exceptional circumstances, such as the link between the TP and the practice being down, Security - Approve Patient can be used from Registration, see Troubleshooting in Registration Links for details.
