✔✔Once you have created views, in which master file(s) can you link to them so that
they display as buttons on the Track Board? - ✔✔Track Board views can only be linked
to in the Profile (LPR) record.
✔✔What causes information to appear in the Patient Events Log? - ✔✔Information
appears in the Patient Events Log whenever an Event is 'fired' in the ED. The events
that can be fired (and the specific information that displays on the Log) are configured in
the Events master file (LEV), but the specific events that are tracked in any given
department are listed in its Department record. Events can be set to fire when a status
is changed, when orders are placed, when results are sent, when an ED Disposition is
selected, based on ADT settings, when a patient's treatment team is updated, and even
when a Flowsheet Row is filed.
✔✔A department's color configuration can be based upon many different settings. What
are they? - ✔✔The Color Coding Scheme can pull from the colors specified in the
Department record for Patient Status, Lab Status, Radiology Status, Consult Status, the

of the DEP record
✔✔Define the following term -

Other (often used for registration status). Listing a status type in the table on this screen
enables its use in your department and makes it appear on the right-click menu on all of
the ED tracking tools.

✔✔Explain why a new computer brought into your department would display the generic
star field screen instead of the Track Board Preview activity. - ✔✔By default, a
