System Administration Guide provides detailed steps on how to create a program. Please reference that guide for details on creating a program. As a reminder, you may have the program already present through data conversion. Steps below are specific to set up the program for inpatient and residential. I have also referenced areas on conversion files that correspond to these fields.
- To begin, navigate to Programs (Administration).
- Click on the Search icon.
- Type Program.
- Only three characters are required before options display.
- Select Programs (Administration) from the options.

- Once in the Program list page utilize filters to locate your program.
- Remember to click the Apply Filter button once you have selected your options.
- Select program from Program Name column to open Program Details.

- As a reminder, ensure the program is added to a Clinical Data Access Group once the program has been created.
- Note: When Programs are created ensure you add the program to ‘BedDay System’ user. This user is added to bed charges, this is a requirement of the system and will not appear on 837i.

Residential Set-Up
