Cameron,
 
So that means that I must invoke the routine/option only from the nurse's menu? Just to be sure, I did that again using the options below.
I have follwed the setup as per the Nursing V.4.0 Technical Manual and Package Security Guide (pg 1.1 - 1.10)

When you invoke an option directly from Menu Manager it is not being handled by TaskMan so you won’t see any entry in TaskMan.  Since you have no entry in the NURS PARAMETER file (the “DATE” node was set directly by the routine in the option you’re invoking) a lot of things probably won’t work right.

The NURS PARAMETER file 213.9 does not have any entries in it. Though the global ^DIC(213.9,1,"DATE") = ^0^0^0^^0^0^0^0^0^0^0^1. Forcing the last digit to 0, I can now begin the Nursing Acuity/Separation-Activation Run option, but it seems to be hanging yet again.

 The above is the status of my terminal for the past hour atleast! Also the routine is not in the taskman's scheduled list, task list.

The option was running when the system was shutdown, but when the system was restarted there was nothing to tell TaskMan to restart the job.  The option checks for the ACUITY TASK NUMBER in the NURS PARAMETER file 213.9 … you’ll find that there is a now out of date task number in that field.  Delete it and you should be able to restart the option … note that it’s usually scheduled to run rather than invoked directly from menu management.

Subject: [Hardhats-members] possible taskman problem

 

While trying to work with the nursing module i had to run the  NURAAM-ACU (Nursing Acuity/Separation-Activation Run) option. When i try the option this is what i see:

 

Select OPTION NAME: NURAAM-ACU
     1   NURAAM-ACU       Nursing Acuity/Separation-Activation Run
     2   NURAAM-ACUEDT       AMIS 1106 Acuity Edit
     3   NURAAM-ACUMAN       Manual Nursing Acuity/Separation Run
CHOOSE 1-3: 1  NURAAM-ACU     Nursing Acuity/Separation-Activation Run
Nursing Acuity/Separation-Activation Run

 

This option is currently running (but when I try to list the jobs running in taskman, it is not in the list  )

 

When I tried to run this option yesterday, my system was hanging. I had to then forcefully stop the execution using 'Ctrl Z'. when we did the rundown things were fine. And so was the startup today morning!

I understand that the job is possibly errored out before completion.

 

I first thought that these problems may be with the way we've worked around with a particular module, but it transcends a module. 

 

  •  "PSA OP SINGLE"  (To collect outpatient dispencing information for a single drug from the Prescription file) and "All Location Dispense/Purge" (To collect dispensing     information automatically for all automatic Replenishment of ward stock, Unit Dose, IV, Outpatient Drugs that are housed in a Pharmacy Location)

      snapshot given below.

 

 ** W A R N I N G **

 

Execution of this option should only be done for either one of the following:

 

1. The "All Location Dispense/Purge", [PSA IV ALL LOCATIONS] nightly back-
   ground option has failed to run.

 

2. New drugs have been added to a pharmacy location, and you would like to see
   the dispensing activity that has occurred for up to the last sixty days.

 

 

Each time this option is executed, the balances are updated in the MONTHLY
ACTIVITY multiple within the DRUG ACCOUNTABILITY STATS file (#58.8).

 

The proram will continue to add or subtract the dispensed amount each time the
option is used.

 

Do you really want to run this option? NO// y  YES

 

Because there is more than one Outpatient Site at this facility, I need you to
select an Outpatient Site: ?
    Answer with OUTPATIENT SITE NAME, or SITE NUMBER, or
        RELATED INSTITUTION

     1   OP PHARM-1    100  Inactive as of: Feb 8,2006
     2   OP PHARM-9    100
CHOOSE 1-2: 2  OP PHARM-9  100

Sorry, no dispensing for this drug has occurred since NOV 14,1988.

 But when I see the Prescription file, the entry againt this it is there

I was wondering if this is related to a problem with Taskman...? How can we work thru this?
