Importing Logs

When you return to your rooms and connect to your main database by launching the Genie Client application, Genie checks the Offsite Log Folder to see if there are any new logs. If so, you will be asked if you want to import them. Click Yes.

Genie will then import the log and make the changes in the main database.

You should check that the changes have been made in the correct patient's record. The code dealing with Offsite Logging is extremely complex, and if it is not done correctly it is possible to get unexpected results.

Once the log has been imported it is moved into an Archive folder within the Offsite Log Folder, so that it can be opened and viewed if there have been any problems with the import. i.e. C:\Genie\Offsite Log Folder\Archive\ or/Applications/Genie/Offsite Log Folder/Archive

If you have created new patient records while offsite, the data file on your laptop is marked as "tainted" once the log is imported. You will not be able to use this copy of the data file for further offsite logging. Before going offsite again you must get a fresh copy of the data file.
