Execute a Saved QBE on the Active Case Series

Just as the system assigns the active status to a QBE when you save modifications to it or execute it, the last saved or generated case series becomes the active case series.

You may want to run an existing QBE on an active case series instead of creating and running a new QBE on the entire data mart and generating a new case series.

To narrow down the list of cases in the active case series:

  1. Generate the case series on which you want to run another QBE as follows:
    • If the case series on which you want to run another QBE is not yet generated or active, you can either create a new QBE and execute it, or execute a saved QBE as explained in Execute a Saved QBE.

      This case series becomes the active case series and remains so until you execute another query to generate a different case series.

    • Alternatively, if the case series on which you want to run another QBE is already saved in the system, navigate to Case Series > Open Case Series > Library.

      When the CASE SERIES LIBRARY page opens, select the case series, and click Make Active.

  2. Navigate to Queries > Query by Example > Library.

    The QUERY BY EXAMPLE LIBRARY page appears.

  3. Select a query to run on the active case series that was generated in Step 1.
  4. Select the Limit Query to Active Case Series check box.
  5. Click Execute.

    The selected QBE is executed on the active case series and the ACTIVE CASE SERIES appears.

    Note that the case series you just generated becomes the active case series.
