Archiving Recall Letters

Recall letters can be archived when they are printed or exported so that an image of a letter is stored and available for viewing in the Patient Chart. Once a letter has been archived, the image can be viewed, but it cannot be reprinted or deleted. Note: Recall letters have a Reset Print Date option that can be used in the event a batch of letters needs to be reprinted or exported. If a batch is reset and then reprinted/exported, the original archived letter image is removed and no longer stored. Only the new image resulting from the reprint/export is stored and available for viewing.
