# OMD Conformance Changes

## Addition of References Range for Lab Results    

We have enhanced the manual transactions window for lab results by introducing a new column for reference values. This feature allows users to enter low and high reference range values directly in the Profile User Interface, improving the clarity and usability of lab result entries.

For details, consult the article on [Adding Lab Results Manually](docId\:Jv1vl5xAmJ0M9GlJuiPAc).

## Document Processor Window Configuration

The following configuration changes were made:

- In **Organisation/Preferences/General/General**, a new **Document Processor tab was added&#xA0;**&#x74;o configure the fields that are shown in the window.

- The label of the **From** field has been changed to **Source Author**.
- The label of the **POS&#xA0;**&#x66;ield has been changed to **Source Facility&#xA0;**&#x61;nd now the user can select the source facility from three options: POS/Ext/Ad Hoc.

## Additional Manual Lab Results Entry Options for Abnormal Flag and Status

Two new Results configuration options have been added, which are accessible under **Organisation/Preferences/General/General/Import**:

- Click the **Set Results Status Flag Display&#xA0;**&#x62;utton.

::Image[]{src="https://api.qa.archbee.co/api/optimize/zICxj0dnLereb6UUrBA3-/ZXuiWSaOQMkmPca6v_NYI_udde8khqbolqwxhcjmbdkjhpm7jamnk4a.png" size="43" isUploading="false" initialPath="assets/Ud_dE8KhQBOlqwXHCjMbDKjhpM7jamnk4A.png" githubPath="en/Releases and Announcements/Release Notes - General/Profile for Windows 10.0/assets/Ud_dE8KhQBOlqwXHCjMbDKjhpM7jamnk4A.png" position="flex-start" showCaption="false" indent="2"}

:::Paragraph{indent="1"}
Selecting the **Show Result Status when entering Manual Transactions&#xA0;**&#x73;etting allows users entering manual lab results to specify the status of the result (e.g., Final, Corrected, Preliminary, Pending, Deleted).
:::

::Image[]{src="https://api.qa.archbee.co/api/optimize/zICxj0dnLereb6UUrBA3-/tmEpsq1KLxk2Rihz8zVxc_qmimzmddxixxjbvkza70rvry7czuzx2nmw.png" size="65" isUploading="false" initialPath="assets/QmiMzMDdxixXJbVKzA70rVry7czuzX2NMw.png" githubPath="en/Releases and Announcements/Release Notes - General/Profile for Windows 10.0/assets/QmiMzMDdxixXJbVKzA70rVry7czuzX2NMw.png" position="flex-start" showCaption="false" indent="2"}

By default, both options are deselected, preserving the existing workflow. 

If these options are selected, the abnormal flag and Status columns are displayed and available for data entry in Manual Transactions and in the Results view. 

![](https://api.qa.archbee.co/api/optimize/zICxj0dnLereb6UUrBA3-/aRUFWRwuQvwgpLQv9Yt2g_x5wakim0bgx9ccn5rsvvsrs5lp2s11fyyw.png)

These settings offer additional flexibility when entering lab data manually.

## Excelleris Lab Result Validation

A new negative acknowledgment mechanism has been implemented for the Excelleris lab result download process. Previously, if there was a connectivity failure or a mismatch in the expected number of lab messages, the system could miss results. With this enhancement, the system now detects such issues and sends a negative acknowledgment back to Excelleris, prompting the service to retransmit the affected lab messages, thereby ensuring reliable and complete data transfer.

Additionally, new logging capabilities have been added to support troubleshooting. Users can now view import/export logs related to the Excelleris eMessage service directly in the EMR interface from **Control Centre&#xA0;**/ **Manage&#xA0;**/ **Import and Export Errors/Logs**. These logs show the status of each batch run (success or failure), including details like the number of results downloaded and whether a positive or negative acknowledgment was sent. This functionality supports OMD's requirement for better transparency and monitoring of lab result workflows for clinicians and administrators.

The **Edit&#xA0;**&#x62;utton on the right-hand side opens up a dialog that allows for adjustments to the filter as follows:

::Image[]{src="https://api.qa.archbee.co/api/optimize/zICxj0dnLereb6UUrBA3-/OTfy0lzYfHwZEz3b0XWKG_cfpayv-subyr0vqgbhnut5e0l9w2vk3ba.png" size="72" isUploading="false" initialPath="assets/cFpAYV-sUByr0VQGb_hnUt5E0l9w2Vk3BA.png" githubPath="en/Releases and Announcements/Release Notes - General/Profile for Windows 10.0/assets/cFpAYV-sUByr0VQGb_hnUt5E0l9w2Vk3BA.png" position="flex-start" showCaption="false"}

In addition, **Matching criteria&#xA0;**&#x68;ave been added to the **Information&#xA0;**&#x74;ab in the **Results&#xA0;**&#x76;iew of a Medical Record to provide clarity in cases where there may be some question as to why a lab result transaction was considered a match. 

![](https://api.qa.archbee.co/api/optimize/zICxj0dnLereb6UUrBA3-/v2GWEF-s5_4RkuGiKEADh_0bdi0sscxgoicdumu6-rfexmnvqiyy84hq.png)

Further, if **Set Properties&#xA0;**&#x69;s selected from the context menu for a particular transaction in the **Results&#xA0;**&#x76;iew, the **Matching History** tab provides valuable audit details.

::Image[]{src="https://api.qa.archbee.co/api/optimize/zICxj0dnLereb6UUrBA3-/0iyHBUVHqz4i8AqqHLRC1_ecpszkyt8soobpliv-o24lbsqnyfevfnq.png" size="70" isUploading="false" initialPath="assets/eCPszKyT8sooBplI_V-o24LBSQnyFEvfnQ.png" githubPath="en/Releases and Announcements/Release Notes - General/Profile for Windows 10.0/assets/eCPszKyT8sooBplI_V-o24LBSQnyFEvfnQ.png" position="flex-start" showCaption="false"}

## Modifying the Default Polling Interval / Download Frequency for Excelleris

If clinicians need to modify the polling interval / download frequency for lab results from Excelleris (e.g., for the New Brunswick eMessage service), this can be achieved as follows. 

### Pre-requisite Configuration

The ability to modify the polling interval is not granted to a provider by default; an **administrator&#xA0;**&#x6E;eeds to grant the provider access to system tasks:

1. Go t&#x6F;**&#xA0;Organisation/People & Places** and double-click on the provider to open up the **Provider&#xA0;**&#x77;indow.
2. In the **Provider&#xA0;**&#x77;indow, go to the **Roles&#xA0;**&#x76;iew and search for "System Tasks Explorer".
3. Right-click on the "Organization\System Tasks Explorer" role action and select **Grant**.

### Steps

1. Go to **Organisation/System Task Explorer**.
2. Select the system task labeled 'eMessage Service "Excelleris (NB)"'.
3. Right-click on the task and choose **Open**.
4. In the task configuration window, go to the **Schedule&#xA0;**&#x74;ab and adjust the polling schedule settings.

::Image[]{src="https://api.qa.archbee.co/api/optimize/zICxj0dnLereb6UUrBA3-/8Ewhx0K-VN2Dr6HqHSdEx_tecbh5gzhz-8uyxmolnstezhvlablrv65g.png" size="74" isUploading="false" initialPath="assets/TeCbH5GZhz-8UyXMoLnSTeZhvLABLRv65g.png" githubPath="en/Releases and Announcements/Release Notes - General/Profile for Windows 10.0/assets/TeCbH5GZhz-8UyXMoLnSTeZhvLABLRv65g.png" position="flex-start" showCaption="false" indent="2"}

5. Click **OK&#xA0;**&#x74;o save the changes.

This updates the automated schedule that controls how frequently lab results are retrieved.

## Manually Downloading Lab Results for Excelleris

If clinicians need to download Excelleris lab results on demand, they can run the system task manually:

### Pre-requisite Configuration

The provider must have the "Organization\System Task Explorer" role action assigned, as detailed above for changing the polling interval.

### Steps

1. Go to **Organisation/System Task Explorer**.
2. Select the system task labeled 'eMessage "Service Excelleris (NB)"'. 

::Image[]{src="https://api.qa.archbee.co/api/optimize/zICxj0dnLereb6UUrBA3-/q1eAI7LzpJPeQ-H-mMLqJ_o23lj7wheo81rvx63iuodau7rybe3pqqq.png" size="100" isUploading="false" initialPath="assets/O23lj7WHe_o81RvX63iUodAU7RYbE3PqqQ.png" githubPath="en/Releases and Announcements/Release Notes - General/Profile for Windows 10.0/assets/O23lj7WHe_o81RvX63iUodAU7RYbE3PqqQ.png" position="flex-start" showCaption="false" indent="2"}

3. Click the green "Run selected task now" icon.

::Image[]{src="https://api.qa.archbee.co/api/optimize/zICxj0dnLereb6UUrBA3-/Duo8UsQElBw4j82JGD4lX_nuj56negsaeo6jmmih-estusri4b2jsga.png" size="10" isUploading="false" initialPath="assets/nuj56neGsaeo6jmmih-Estu_srI4B2jsGA.png" githubPath="en/Releases and Announcements/Release Notes - General/Profile for Windows 10.0/assets/nuj56neGsaeo6jmmih-Estu_srI4B2jsGA.png" position="flex-start" showCaption="false" indent="2"}

This triggers a manual download of the lab results, bypassing the automated polling schedule.

## Laboratory Name Pre-populated with the GNB's Dynamic List of Laboratory Facilities

For customers in New Brunswick, Profile can pre-populate laboratory names from a dynamic list (which is synchronized daily) of laboratory facilities provided through Profile's integration with the the Government of New Brunswick.

Previously, it was up to users to maintain the list of External Providers manually. With this integration, by using a macro set up by Intrahealth Customer Support, maintenance of this list can be automated.

Lab names from this list are populated in Profile using a macro, which creates External Providers in Profile with **Specialty&#xA0;**&#x73;et to "Other", as shown in the example screenshot below.
