Your Introduction to Data Alignment
As part of your upgrade to RxWorks V4, there will be records in your current database structure that need to be ‘mapped’ (or matched) into in your new RxWorks database structure. Another term you may hear this being referred to is ‘Aligning your data’.
Information does not change, just the way it is saved into the new database.
The RxWorks database structure has been developed based on extensive research and review into the emerging trends of modern practice management.
The data alignment will:
- Remove duplicate records in your database.
- Correct misspelled records.
- Store your data more consistently and accurately.
- Provide you with an extensive list of breeds and species.
- Set up your database structure to allow for greater statistical and reporting analysis.
Analysis tools are available through standard RxWorks Reports and additional RxWorks Modules.
RxWorks will complete the majority of data mapping, however you will be required to audit and approve the work RxWorks have completed.
To help with the Data Mapping process, RxWorks has created a Data Mapping Spreadsheet.
An RxWorks Implementer will call to arrange a start date for the data mapping process. In addition to this manual, we will provide you with further details and training.
It is important you understand that while mapping is in progress no breeds, species, reminders, custom fields, services, or suppliers can be added to RxWorks.
