Does anyone know where the signing privileges for the document type progress note import is? I do not see it under Document Signature in Security. I have a document that was switched to this document type but we cannot do anything with it because I cannot find how to give permission for this document type.

Document type "progress note import" is not one of the default built-in document types (at least in CPS), so it must be defined as one of your custom document types.
Is it a new document type perhaps? I've never seen this before, but perhaps your document sig security settings are not in sync with your document types.

It is not one of our custom document types. I see that the transition of care document type is Progress Note Export and I do not have signing privileges to change this also.

Could you be talking about encounter types by chance? When you create a new document in the chart, the update chart window opens. You can optionally choose an encounter type, which has a document type mapped to it. The document type is what the signing privileges apply to.

Here's my answer from another thread that asked this:
I think I remember this one. There are 3 or 4 document types that are used behind the scenes by GE and they don't get listed in the document signing privileges. Unfortunately, they do show in the user interface and can be chosen for a document type manually by a user when they start an update. I believe they all have IMP and EXP in the names - for import and export. I notified GE about this as an issue in CEMR 9.8 a few service packs ago. Sounds like your fixed itself but if one later doesn't fix itself you are going to need to change the document type (if you can) to another document type. You might have to update it in the DOCUMENTS tables if you can't do it through the interface (or have GE do it for you). You usually have to have rights to sign both the before and after document types to be able to change it.

Was there ever a final answer on this? We are having the same problem. It does not show as an option when starting a new update, but one of my staff changed a document type to Progress Note - Imp. I tried to add it to our Document Types, however I am not able to put in the hyphen. Is there a way to get rid of this thing without calling GE? It will not let me change the document type, sign it, file in error, etc. We already recreated it and signed it.. I just want this one out.
Is this new?? I do not recall ever seeing these document types, and in my 15 years of working with Centricity i have never seen it!
Thanks!

You can run a SQL statement to update the DOCTYPE field in the DOCUMENT table for the row that contains that particular document. Find the PID of the patient by querying the PERSON table/view (depending on whether you have Oracle or SQL Server) and then use the PID to find the patient's documents in the DOCUMENT table. You can find the correct document by comparing the SUMMARY and VISDOCID (the number that is just above the preview pane in the document view on the left side) fields. You can find the DOCTYPE number you need to update it to by querying the DOCTYPES table.
