Record Immunizations Screen

 Purpose

The Record Immunizations screen is used to individually finalize the information that will be recorded for each new and/or historical immunization selected.

To accurately reflect the VIS date of the form given to the client/parent, this section displays to the user the current VIS to be saved with the immunization record for each antigen. Based upon your selection of 'Trade Name-Lot' the VIS Dates For New Immunizations section will be populated with the corresponding VIS information for the antigen chosen. If the VIS you are giving is not the current VIS, you need to edit the VIS date on the Edit Immunization screen.

 Functionality

Button

Description

After all information has been entered for each individual immunization selected to record, click on the  Ok  button to save the immunizations to the database. The registry will perform minimal data checks to ensure enough relevant information was entered for each immunization before saving. If critical information is missing or invalid, you will be prompted to fix the error before continuing. In the event that you encounter a duplicate immunization or have preselected more immunizations than you want to enter, unselect the Save check box for each unwanted immunization and it will not be saved to the database.

If the  Cancel  button is clicked, any changes or updates made to the information on the Record Immunizations screen will be lost, and you will be returned to the Pre-select Immunizations screen.
