In Demographics, what happens if Nurse Denver types the synonym ‘Dad’ when the title of that category value is ‘Father’? | The word ‘Father’ will populate the field. |
When you delete a category value, what happens in addition to making that value no longer available as a choice on the category list? | Any records that had items pointing to that particular value now appear value-less (empty) but a pointer remains. |
You’re working in the Category List Maintenance activity and see this message: ‘Release Range: All Categories.’ What does that mean? | It means that the category list is a system (Epic controlled) list so is uneditable. |

Name two things that are defined by your role record. | Roles define your default Startup Activity, the Hyperspace toolbar, options under the Epic button, the maximum number of workspaces a user can have open, automatic timeout settings and whether you user’s last login department will default the next time she logs in. |
Nurse Denver is working in a patient workspace and notices that she does not have an Order Review activity tab. She then looks under the More Activities tab and still does not see it.

Where can you look up and view samples of Epic-released print groups? | “print group encyclopedia” |
Describe how to view the names and ID numbers of print groups in Hyperspace when logged in as an end user. | Go to Help > Help Desk Reports. Double click on the Report & Print Group Assistant report to enable assistance. (As an administrator, you can also go to Reports > Show Report and Print Group IDs.) |
If you need to build a report that is similar to another one, what is the fastest approach? | Duplicate the report and edit the duplicate. |
Describe one feature of a Native HTML report that is not found in a plain text report. | Possible answers: You can arrange the print groups into columns, there are hyperlinks to other activities or reports and you could attach a comment. In general, Native HTML reports are more colorful and interactive than Plain Text reports. |
