This release also includes the eRAD ERAD RIS 4.2023.034 enhancement:

Summary

This enhancement adds the ability to batch cancel orders from the Orders to Schedule worklist.

This is particularly helpful when one study on the order is canceled or discontinued and the Schedule Later option is chosen, putting the study back to Ordered status and displaying it on the Orders to Schedule WL. If the patient elects not to have the study, there will no longer be any difficulty removing it from the Orders to Schedule WL.

Feature Description

Previously, each order had to be cancelled individually, entering a reason for cancellation each time.

With this change, users may multiselect rows from the Orders to Schedule worklist and cancel all with a single Cancel reason:

Quickly select and cancel a range of orders.

When cancelling an order that requests multiple studies, and some of those related studies are already in progress, the Cancel Order(s) action will cancel the unscheduled studies while leaving studies in a more advanced status (along with the underlying order) intact. Additional details of this behavior is noted in Feature #21668 - ‘Cancel order’ even though related studies are already in progress.

Currently, when canceling a single order with a conflicting study, users are presented a warning message with details of affected orders.

The existing cancel dialog when a study is in progress.

This is unchanged for a single study, however cancelling multiple studies will not display the same warning messages as this would be problematic when canceling e.g., hundreds of orders. Instead, users are simply informed of a count of orders to be cancelled:

The new cancel multiple orders dialog.

Permission to cancel multiple orders is controlled via a new Clinical.CancelOrder RIS Access String.
