Pre-linking (PL) checks
Use Centralized data front end.mdb "PL" (Pre-linking) queries and fix data as needed; if a patient shows up in one of the queries fix if possible; if question to collector is required, set Record Status field to "questioned"
Perform the Queries in this order:
- "PL_1orphans"
- PL_2Phin Fake or Blank (see Generating PseudoPHINs
- PL_Diff_Phin_SameLN_FN_DOB
- Home, Advanced, Advanced Filter/Sort, LastName (double click or drag & drop), Sort by ascending, Home, Toggle Filter what is this? does the query need changing? I am doing that query so that the it will group together with the same LN and easy to see the error.
- PL_SamePhin_Diff_LN_FN_DOB_Sex
- Home, Advanced, Advanced Filter/sort, Phin (double click or drag & drop), Sort by ascending, Home, Toggle Filter what is this? does the query need changing?I used this query to group together the same PHIN and easy to see the error.

Set record as vetted
At this point all records with problems will have had the Record Status field set to "questioned" so the remaining ones that are set to "sent" are clean and can be set to "vetted".
- Press the "vet all sent" button.
- The program will display a count of how many records have each of the recorstatatus possibilities.
- take note of the "sent" number and click OK
- The program will tell how many records it is about to update. 'you are about to update ___ rows'
- If this number is the same as the number of sent records, click OK, if not click cancel and try to figure out what is wrong.
- This will change all records currently set to "sent" to "vetted".
Push up data
When all processing is done, run Push_up_centralized_data.vbs to return the data to where collectors can add to it.
