Am I understanding this correctly: I need to purchase some software in order to edit the PM reports? What is this software called? About how much does it cost? Is there a steep learning curve? Where can I get training, if needed?
Any help or advice is much appreciated. Thanks!
With your purchase of Centricity, you should have at least one licence for Crystal Designer, which is a basic form of the program many of us Chuggers have purchased called Crystal Reports from SAP. ( http://www.crystalreports.com/ ) You have to specify which computer your Crystal Designer license is granted to in order to customize reports from that computer. GE can help set you up on moving the license or you can do it yourself if you're familiar/comfortable with Server Setup.
After you have your program ready to go, a good resource for Crystal Reports training is from Clinical Software Services ( http://clinicalsoftwareservice...../index.htm ). They are highly rated and offer an EMR class. If you're a self-learner, another option is to purchase a Crystal Reports book and read, read, read. And there's always GE, you can contact your sales rep to get information on upcoming classes and courses.
Hope this helps,
Sam
