I need to be able to assign new obs values to a single date placed on the top of the form.

Document date of 05/01/2020

Most values of the encounter will assign to the 05/01/2020 clinical date, which is appropriate, however.

A form within the encounter being completed, with historical purposes, but all values have the same date, as all data (OBS) collected and being entered will have been done on the same date :

Date of test: document.Temp_Date

OBSNOW(ONE)

OBSNOW(TWO)

OBSNOW(THREE)

These OBS values need to flow to the flow sheet with the date entered into the document.Temp_Date value and not the date the actual clinical date of the document.

Hello,

Here is a form I use to allow entry of many lab values with an over-ride date. You can probably cut/paste codes within this form for your particular purposes.

LoadObsHistorical

Hopefully, will get you started.

The code to give an observation term a date other than the date of the update would be:

Date of test: document.Temp_Date

OBSNOW("ONE","VALUE",DOCUMENT.TEMP_DATE)

OBSNOW("TWO","VALUE",DOCUMENT.TEMP_DATE)

OBSNOW("THREE","VALUE",DOCUMENT.TEMP_DATE)

You could put this in an Action Button or inside a watcher expression that checked to see if the value and date were set and if they were, run the command for the observation term or terms.

Thanks, David,

I have something similar set up, but it's being a bit Fussy, so I was trying to find out potential options.

For example, I don't know the value of OBS two, OBS three, to put in the

OBSNOW("OBSTWO","VALUE",Document.Date) and when I try to put in something to find it, I get errors.
