Service Items Detail Report

The Service Items Detail report provides a class-based detail of services performed, patient name, invoice number, transaction type, service date, issue date, invoiced amount, paid amount, write-offs and discounts for each service item for a specified date range.

Before you begin

Note:
This report is not to be treated as a financial report, because it is calculated according to date of service, rather than date of entry. A report that is calculated according to date of service, if printed on two separate occasions, with exactly the same parameters chosen, can produce different results. This would happen if a service that had been included in the original report, was adjusted in the intervening period between print runs, and given a different date of service.

A financial report, such as the Earnings report, is calculated according to date of entry. As such, when printed on any number of separate occasions, it will always produce the same results, regardless of the adjustments, and so forth that may have taken place in the meantime.

If you chose "Patient / Item number", then the first alphabetical surname will be displayed first.
