1. Prerequisites to Work Organizer Management in the IS-H System

To understand work organizer management you must be familiar with SAPscript (meaning of windows, elements, and so on) and PDF-based print forms.

For information about PDF-based print forms, launch transaction SFP, and then choose Help -> Application Help.

2. Basics

You can trigger the printing of forms from the application transactions (for example, patient admission) in the IS-H system. It is, of course, also possible to print letters and labels, or to create magnetic cards (if an appropriate output device is available). For this reason, we prefer to use the umbrella term work organizer rather than simply 'form'.

  • Definition of Work Organizer

    Work organizers are forms, labels and magnetic cards in the IS-H system. Work organizers are usually linked to a SAPscript form and are formatted and output using SAPscript.

    Whether or not a particular work organizer (for example, label, invoice) can be printed depends on events. The events determine which datasets ( work organizer types) are available for output.

  • Definition of Work Organizer Type

    Work organizer types represent datasets that are available for editing a work organizer.


    Example

    • When a patient is admitted to your hospital, you can create an admission notification for the insurance provider.
    • You cannot, however, print an invoice when the patient is transferred.

      The IS-H transaction triggers an event. One or more work organizer type(s) are assigned to each event. These assignments are either the default settings delivered by SAP, or a subset of those selected by the customer). The work organizer type determines the data set that can be printed in SAPscript on a work organizer.

      Example

      The work organizer types AUFDT, AUFK, AUFN, PDAT, PETK and STAM are provided for the event NP11P0 (Inpatient Admission: Create Planned Admission Data).

3. Work Organizer Types

The work organizer type determines the dataset available for output in SAPscript or on PDF-based print forms. The data fields (symbols) available on a form are defined in RNF structures. RNF structures are structures in the R/3 Repository. By looking in this repository, you can tell which fields are available for each of the RNF structures and discover their respective meaning.

The Section entitled Display Standard Work Organizer Types tells you which work organizer types make available which RNF structures.

Caution: The work organizer types are predefined by SAP. You cannot add to them in Customizing.

Example

When you use work organizer type PETK, the RNF structures at your disposal include the following:

  • RNF01 (Patient: Name, Address)
  • RNF02 (Patient: Employer)
  • RNF031 (Patient: Next of Kin1)
  • RNF032 (Patient: Next of Kin2)

3.1 Category of a Work Organizer Type

Caution: The category of a work organizer type is predefined by SAP. You cannot modify it.

A work organizer type is assigned to exactly one of the following three categories:

  • Category ' ': No condition applies

    You can only assign one form to a work organizer assigned to the work organizer type of the category ' ' (no condition).

  • Category '1': Conditioned by insurance provider/insurance provider type

    You can assign various forms, dependent on the insurance provider and/or the insurance provider type, to a work organizer assigned to a work organizer type of the category '1' (conditioned by insurance provider/insurance provider type).

  • Category '2': Conditioned by billing type/insurance provider type

    You can assign various forms, dependent on the billing type and the insurance provider type, to a work organizer assigned to a work organizer type of the category '2' (conditioned by billing type/insurance provider type).

Example

  • Work organizer type PETK (patient labels) belongs to category ' ' (no condition). It is independent of the insurance provider.
  • Work organizer type AUFK (admission data for insurance provider) belongs to category '1' (conditioned by insurance provider/insurance provider type). You can therefore use different for different insurance providers.
  • Work organizer type RECH10A (outpatient invoice data (billing type) belongs to category '2' (conditioned by billing type/insurance provider type). You can therefore use different for different billing types and/or insurance provider types.

Usually, work organizer types of the categories '1' and '2' are used for correspondence with insurance providers.

Note: You can use SAPscript commands (such as IF..; CASE ..) in forms to output specific texts in relation to an insurance provider without having to create a separate form for this purpose.

3.2 Customizing for Work Organizer Types

In Customizing, you stipulate in relation to each institution which work organizer types you want to use with which events. You also specify whether you want to restrict the work organizers according to user-specific organizational units (see below).

Note: You can only use such event/work organizer type combinations that are listed under Assign Events to Work Organizer Types (SAP Preset Values).

4. Work Organizers

A work organizer is a utility that primarily links a work organizer type with one or more SAPscript forms or PDF-based print forms. You can also control printout (number of copies, header) at work organizer level.

Examples

  • Example 1

    Whenever a patient is admitted to your hospital, the admitting release form is to be printed in duplicate. You use work organizer type AUFN , and create a corresponding SAPscript form or a PDF-based print form. A work organizer (for examplen, named VERTRAG) is required to link the work organizer type with the form. You start by assigning the work organizer to work organizer type AUFN. In output control, you specify for work organizer VERTRAG , that the corresponding SAPscript form is N_AUFVERTRAG, or, for a PDF-based print form it is ISH_ADM_RELEASE_FORM, and should be printed in duplicate.

  • Example 2

    Whenever a patient is admitted into your hospital, small and large labels are to be printed. You use work organizer type PETK, and create two SAPscript forms (for small and large labels). Two work organizers (for example, ETIKL and ETIGR) are required to link the work organizer type with the forms. You start by assigning both work organizers to the same work organizer type PETK. In output control, you specify that the corresponding SAPscript form is ZN_ETIKL (or ZN_ETIGR) for the work organizer ETIKL (or ETIGR). To output a PDF-based print form, you can use the form ISH_PATIENT_LABEL, for example.

  • Example 3

    When outpatient billing is carried out, different invoice forms are to be created for statutory insurance funds and private health insurers. Two different billing types have been defined for this in Customizing for Billing. You use work organizer type RECH10A since it belongs to category '2' (conditioned by billing type/insurance provider type) and therefore allows different forms for each billing type. You create two SAPscript forms (for example,. ZN_RECHGES for statutory insurance funds and ZN_RECHPRI for private health insurers). A work organizer (e.g. RECHAMB) is required to link the work organizer type with the forms. You assign this work organizer to the work organizer type RECH10A. Since the work organizer type is controlled by the billing type, two entries are required for the work organizer RECHAMB in output control:

    • Assignment of SAPscript form ZN_RECHGES for billing type statutory
  • Assignment of SAPscript form ZN_RECHPRI for billing type private.

4.1 Window and Text Elements (for SAPscript forms only)

As mentioned above, one or more forms are assigned to a work organizer. Depending on the work organizer type, the form windows of these forms must be controlled via a window table. This information is stored with the work organizer types. It can also be found in the IMG Section entitled&#
