Printing a Report

• Print entire form - With a report displayed on screen, select Go or Print to print the entire report. You do not need to expand the form first before printing, because printing automatically expands all levels. Be warned if you have chosen the very long VAMP Reports (V_Reports) as this includes all the other reports, and does thereforetake a long while to print all the patient data.

  You can also print the report from the Select Guideline screen using Print, see Select Guidelines Screen, Reports Index, View and Print for details.

  Print part of form - You do not need to print the whole form.

  Initially, select Expand to expand all lines, or expand unexpanded headings you want printed by individually clicking on this once.

  To print all or only part of the form, select Print to display the Print Plan screen.

• Print All prints the whole plan. You can do a Print Preview before printing.
• Print Hidden Lines - With this ticked, everything prints, as it effectively expands the guideline before it prints it. If this is unticked, all lines that are currently visible print.
• Print empty data lines - If ticked, on a Patient Report or Guideline, then lines merged with patient data which say 'No data available' display on printouts. If Print empty data lines is unticked, printouts do not print the 'No data available lines', retain their heading, and only print lines where there is data.
  Note - To suppress empty lines (permanently) when printing a report, select the report, View, Print, then untick Print empty data lines. Then do either Preview or Print (the change will not remain effective unless you do one of these).  Once changed, that should then remain as the default setting for that particular report regardless of whether you print it from an index or otherwise.
• Print by SubHeading - If you select this, a list of the report's headings displays and you can select some or all of these. Either hold the control key and click to select non-consecutive headings, or Shift key down and click to highlight a block of headings.
• Print Selected Items - Inactive until you have first selected lines, by highlighting them.
• Copies - You can select to print more than one copy. If Collate copies is selected, then page 1 then page 2 prints, followed by page 1 and page 2 of the second copy, and so on.
• Print Main Plan Header - Tick to include the report title.
• Print Patient Details - Tick to include the top line of the report, with the patient's name and date of birth.
• Print Standard Footer - Tick to include the footer line showing the date and time of printing and the operator.
• Print or Print Preview - Once you have made the selection, choose either Preview to view the printed version on screen, or Print. Collapsed lines are expanded automatically as they print.

Note - To print this topic select Print in the top right corner and follow the on-screen prompts.
