that, if required, you can go to the relevant screen within the system and make another
attempt at updating this patient in respect of this change.
If you use the C (compare) option and the system finds that:
· the PDS now holds different information for the patient from that which
existed at the time the transaction was created; and
· it was not this transaction that updated the patient on the PDS;
it would not now be safe for this transaction to be applied to the PDS. You will be
offered a D option (allowing you to delete this transaction from UQ).
Before deleting the transaction, it is recommended that you print the detail of the
transaction in order that, if required, you may go to the relevant screen within the
system to make another attempt at updating this patient in respect of this change.
Serial Change Number Differs (E-PDS)
Between the latest data for this patient on the PDS being retrieved by the NHAIS
system and the corresponding update being received by the PDS from the NHAIS
system, someone else updated this patient's data on the PDS. As a result, when the
PDS checked the 'serial change number' (SCN) included within the NHAIS update
transaction it was found to be out of date. As a consequence, the PDS did not process
this update transaction as it would not have been safe for it to do so.
For such a transaction with an error status of E-PDS, you will initially be offered two
options for the Action field on page 3 of the UQ screen:
· C to compare, which allows you to check the PDS to see if the patient's data
on the PDS matches that within the update transaction; and
· Q to quit from this screen back to page 2.
If you use the C (compare) option and the system finds that the patient's data on the
PDS matches that within the update transaction, you will be offered a U option. This
allows you to proceed to update the local NHAIS system with the transaction details,
thereby clearing this transaction from UQ.
If you use the C (compare) option and the system finds that the patient's data on the
PDS does not match that within the update transaction, it would not now be safe for
this transaction to be applied to the PDS. You will be offered a D option (allowing
you to delete this transaction from UQ). Before deleting the transaction, it is
recommended that you print the detail of the transaction in order that you, if required,
may go to the relevant screen within the system to make another attempt at updating
this patient in respect of this change.
