Monitoring Activity

  1. The Activity Graph tab displays system activity (inbound queues, outbound queues, and manual and automatic order creation).
  2. Select a Graph option to indicate what type of graph you wish to view: Inbound Queue, Outbound Queue, or Orders Created. Copia displays the inbound queue graph by default.
  3. For the graph's Time range, enter a date and time in the format MM/DD/YYYY, HH:MM AM/PM in the Start and End fields, or select a date from the calendar view by clicking the calendar icon located next to the fields. The start date defaults to 12:00 AM on the current date, and the end date defaults to 11:59 PM on the current date. Click Now to enter the current date and time. Click Clear to clear the date and time fields.
  4. Enter a number and select a unit of measurement (Minute(s), Hour(s), or Day(s)) to define the Units Copia should use for the graph.
  5. Choose a delimiter to sort by, including "Double quotes and comma," "Comma," "Tab," "Vertical bar," or "Semicolon." Click the Export button to export the graph to your computer.
  6. Once you have set the graph criteria, click the Refresh button to update the page with the latest activity information based on your selected graph type, time range, and unit of measurement. If no results match the search criteria, "No hosts have activity for the selected date range" will appear on the page.
  7. As you review the graph, note the following:
  8. Move the mouse over a data point to display the data set's name, the time range represented, and actual value for that point on the graph.
  9. Click the Refresh button to update the page with the latest activity information. Copia retains your selected graph type, time range, and unit of measurement when you refresh the page, so you will need to manually change these values, if desired.

System Maintenance Log

  1. The System Maintenance Log tab displays logging for various system maintenance procedures setup at the system default-level.
  2. Enter a date and time in the format MM/DD/YYYY, HH:MM AM/PM in the Start and End fields, or select a date from the calendar view by clicking the calendar icon located next to the fields.

  4. Click the Maintenance Comments drop-down list to choose a maintenance comment to filter by. Select either "All Maintenance Comments," "Failed to Run," or "Successfully Ran" from the drop-down list to narrow search results.
  5. Once you filter the list, Copia displays the Start Time, Finish Time, Records Modified, Maintenance Comment, Server Name, and Record Type columns for each instance where a user performed maintenance in Copia.
  6. You may sort the displayed actions by clicking the heading for the Start Time column. The up and down arrows indicate whether the current sort order is descending (\/) or ascending (/\). By default, Copia sorts in a descending order; however, if you click the same column link again, Copia sorts the data in an ascending order and it adjusts the arrow to indicate the new sort direction.
  7. Select an option from the Select column by clicking the appropriate checkbox. Once you have selected a row, click the Print Selected button to print the selected row. Click the Export Selected button to export the selected row and then save to your computer.

Enter the number of milliseconds that constitutes a long database execution time in the available field. Click the OK button to set the number of milliseconds, or click the Cancel button to exit the prompt without saving any changes. When this button is clicked, the button changes to Debugging statements are currently not being generated.
  3. Click the The new method of loading order data is being used button to use the new method of loading order data. When this button is clicked, the button changes to The new method of loading order data is NOT being used.
  4. Click the HL7 debugging statements are currently NOT being generated button to allow debugging statements to be generated when HL7 messages are evaluated.
  5. Click the Millisecond pause between inbound message parsing drop-down to set an amount of milliseconds between inbound message parsing. Milliseconds range from 0 to 5000.

When the checkbox is checked, the Now, Clear, and Update Time buttons appear.
  15. Click the Hash Patient Data button in the Fictionalize Database section to have the ability to fictionalize patient and patient related information. All host records will also be modified when the database has been fictionalized. The inbound and outbound interface settings will be disabled. Fictionalizing a database using the Hash Patient Data option will allow a Harvest LIS database to be fictionalized as well and still allow patient information to be usable between Copia and Harvest LIS. This feature is available to superusers only. When the Hash Patient Data button is clicked, an alert will display asking, "The database will become usable for demo purposes only. Do you want to continue with fictionalization?" If the Yes button is clicked, an additional alert will display asking, "Are you sure you want to continue with fictionalization?" Fictionalization will begin when the Yes button has been clicked. A progress bar will be displayed to indicate the percentage of records that have been fictionalized. Once the process is complete, an alert will display stating, "The database has been successfully fictionalized." If any errors occurred during fictionalization, an alert will display stating, "Errors occurred while converting the data to demo. See the Error Log for more details." Any errors will be recorded in the Error Log. Fictionalization will not continue if any errors occur. Warning: Changes are permanent. Once the database has been fictionalized, it is usable for demo purposes only.
