Report Sections

The data has been segregated by sections. These counts are based on the number of records rather than individual, since it is possible for an individual to have multiple types of holds, rationales and demographic characteristics.  

If there is no data available, then the field will not appear, and end users should assume that the count is zero for those defined parameters. 

A legal status will be included if it was active during the defined report time period. Active is defined as when the Legal Status order start date is between the Start Date and End Date values entered by the user prior to running the report 

Any legal orders that were marked in Client Orders as “ERROR” by end users will not be included.
