The MEDITECH system
comes standard with a report writer, which can be
used to gather information from across MEDITECH
applications for use in customized reports. Users
have the ability to define the content of reports,
incorporating information captured through any field
within the MEDITECH system, including customer-defined
screens. Users can determine a specific sort method
as well as limit the report to specified selection
criteria such as department, location, and range of
values. Moreover, the output format, including the
spacing and alignment of columns can also be defined.
Reports created in
MEDITECH’s Report Writer may include headers and
footers and can be run by any specified date range.
Reports can also be saved and added to any
user’s customized desktop via a drop-down menu.
Customers can use the report writer to create their
own customized forms to meet their organizations
needs.
MEDITECH's Report
Writer can be used to generate several different
types of reports, including:
- Custom forms
and labels

predetermined values. Users can also determine the
order in which the records will appear.
