Deactivating a System Record in a Patient Profile

If an existing local ID for a patient becomes obsolete, you can deactivate the system record with that local ID for the patient profile. A patient profile must have at least one active local ID; if you deactivate a patient’s last active system record, the entire profile is deactivated. When you deactivate a system record from a patient profile, the survivor calculator determines what changes, if any, should be made to the SBR.

To Deactivate a System Record

1. Using one of the search methods described in Searching for Patient Profiles, display the patient profile you want to modify on the View/Edit page.

2. In the EUID tree in the left portion of the page, expand Source Systems, and then select the system and local ID of the system record you want to deactivate.

3. Click Deactivate system-ID, where system is the system name and ID is the local ID number for the system record you want to deactivate.

4. Click Commit.

   The page refreshes and the SBR is recalculated based on the new information.
