[MEDITECH-L] npr report writer question

[Michelle Precourt]

I have a report that I wrote and it is pulled by collection date. I
want to schedule this report to run monthly but am not sure what
paramaters to put into collection date so that it runs from the 1 to the
last of each month. Does anyone have any suggestions/

Assuming you are MAGIC, and you want to run for the previous month, use MB-1
and ME-1 respectively. You should use the /S parameter also I believe (or is
it \S?).

Thank you to all who responded.

Speaking of scheduling issues...

We are Magic 5.62.
I am trying to schedule a report to run biweekly on a Sunday (i.e. every
other Sunday). I couldn't figure it out. Meditech says it can't be done.
Has anybody done this and if so how?

Thanks,

Hi Mitch.

I was a Client/Server guy until a few months ago, and am now working
with Magic. We have inherited some reports with \S in them. What does
the \S function do?

Thank you for your help.

Jeff,

That means a sliding date. For example t-1/S

Would mean current day -1
