How do Event Notifications benefit me?

How many patients can be included on the spreadsheet in a bulk upload?
A bulk upload could contain a maximum of 5 MB which is equivalent to approximately 10,000 patients.
Do I have to complete all columns on the bulk upload spreadsheet?
Yes, Administrators should complete the required fields on the spreadsheet to achieve optimal results. Columns left blank will affect the search for patients. Although the spreadsheet will upload and will process even if you don't complete fields in all columns, the lack of information will result in a lower chance of identifying the correct patient.
At a minimum, the Patient Last Name and Patient First Name columns are considered mandatory.
If the Email Address column is not completed, a patient search will not be performed. You will receive an error message.
Can more than one user email address be entered on the same line on the upload spreadsheet so that more than one user receives event notification on the same patient?
No, enter only one user email address per line. A new spreadsheet can be created for each user when the same patients are monitored by more than one person.
What is the expected length of time needed to upload a bulk upload file?
The upload time is short, usually within just a few seconds but it is typically uploaded within one minute.
What is the expected length of time needed to process a bulk upload file?
It will take at least 15 minutes to process a bulk upload file.
