Simple Orders Notification

NextGen® Enterprise EHR enables you to receive simple notification for any completed orders. To receive simple orders notifications, you must enable the Use Simple Workflow Notification Universal Preference in the System Administrator application. Once enabled, this feature sends a simple task to either the order creator or the ordering provider or both.

The Notify Order Creator and Notify Ordering Provider Universal Preferences settings determine where the simple task is sent.

Simple tasks do not have the Accept/Decline functionality. Users who receive a simple task notification in their task list must take appropriate actions and mark the simple task as completed when they have completed the task. Simple tasks that the creator and the provider receive are identical even though they are two separate tasks and do not have a direct association with one another. Completing or deleting a simple task by the creator does not affect the simple task that was sent to the provider.
