Admin: Layout Templates

Page Description

Use the Layout Templates page to create custom templates for report headers, bodies, order choice information, and footers, as well as requisitions, collection lists, manifests, custom versions of the Order Patient Samples page, custom versions of the Demographics page, blank requisitions, and form letters. The page contains two tabs, one for creating templates and one for viewing existing templates. Note that you must have the "View Layout Templates page" right associated with your assigned role in order to use this page.

For most layouts, you may create custom templates based on the standard system templates or the custom templates that have already been defined in your system, or you may start with blank versions of the templates to create your own format. There is no system default template for blank requisitions or form letters; you must define them from scratch or base them off of an existing template.

Once you make a template active, or live, in the system, users may select the template they wish to use when they define the result report (on the System Defaults, Locations, or Result Delivery administration pages or the Result Delivery lab tasks page), order choice information (templates referenced within report, requisition, collection list, and manifest templates), requisition format (on the Hosts administration page), collection list (on the Collection List page), manifest (on the Create Manifest page), patient requisition (when creating a blank requisition for the patient from the "Options" link on the Demographics, Insurance, Order History, Collect Samples, and Order Patient Samples pages), form letters for order entry rules (on the Order Entry Rules administration page), the Order Patient Samples page (when defining the signed-in settings on the Locations administration page), the Demographics page, or the Data Browser report (on the Data Browsers administration page). When a template is live, you may make changes to the format, and only post the new version when you are ready to do so.

Note that you may hide user defined field labels on layout templates. To do so, select the "Hide User Defined Field label" option below the user defined field you add. This setting prevents Copia from displaying the field label on the report or page.

Viewing Layout Template Lists

  1. When you open this page, Copia displays two tabs: Create Templates and View Templates. Use the Create Templates tab to create new templates based on the system default templates. See "Creating New Custom Templates" below. Click the View Templates tab to access the existing templates that you may view and the custom template filter.
  2. The Create Templates tab contains copies of each of the default, system-defined formats for the standard and alternate result report templates (headers, bodies, order choice information, and footers), page footer, standard requisition, standard collection list, standard manifest, standard Order Patient Samples page, standard Demographics page, and importable templates. You may use these templates themselves, or you may base new template layouts on these templates. See "Creating New Custom Templates" below.
  3. The View Templates tab contains a list of up to four custom templates. Each custom template is listed on the Custom Template List with the name, its type of template, the date it was created, the date it was updated, and a description. There are also several links, and if there is both a live and modified version of the template, there are links for both versions:
  4. To search and narrow the list of displayed templates on the View Templates tab, select an option from the Template Type drop-down field and/or enter one or more characters in the Template Name field and click the Refresh button. Copia updates the list to display only those that match your search.
  5. If the list on the View Templates tab is longer than one page, use the Page links, located below the list of custom templates, to navigate through the list. If there are more page links than can fit on the page at once, Copia displays the Page field. Enter a number in this field and press the Enter key on the keyboard to immediately open the selected page.
  6. To view active templates only on the View Templates tab, select the Show Active Only checkbox at the top of the Layout Templates page. You set the active/inactive status in the Create New Template, Editing Template, or Create New from Existing Template sections of the Layout Templates page. See "Creating New Custom Templates" below.

Creating New Custom Templates

  1. When you open this page, Copia displays two tabs: Create Templates and View Templates. Use the Create Templates tab to create new templates based on the system default templates. Click the View Templates tab to access the existing templates that you may view, edit, and use as the basis for new templates. See "Viewing Document Template Lists" above.
  2. There are three ways to create a new template, and each method is based on a different type of template:
  3. Based on the creation method you use, Copia displays a copy of the selected template or a blank template in the Create New from Existing Template or Create New Template sections of the page.
  4. Copia displays the type of template you are creating in the Template Type field. You cannot modify this value.
  5. For every type of template, complete the template-level information below. Note that changes to this information do not trigger Copia to treat the template as a modified version that you would have to make live again. Copia automatically saves the changes you make to this information to the version of the template that is live in the system.
  6. Beneath the template-level information, Copia displays a preview of what the selected layout template will look like, using sample data. As you make changes to the template (see below), Copia updates the display.
  7. Each template contains one or more sections and/or columns that you may customize, and some templates contain buttons to access additional format settings. See the various template definition topics below for additional information.
  8. When you customize layout templates, you create or edit groupings of data, organized in a table format. Select or clear the Use Drag and Drop option to indicate how you wish to design your template, either by building groupings using the T and C buttons to add tables and cells, or by dragging the table and cell elements to the desired location. See "Creating or Editing Groupings" below.

Viewing, Adding, or Editing Images

  1. Click the Image Settings button when defining layout templates to open the Layout Template Images pop-up, where you may add or edit one or more images. See the various template definition topics above for additional information.
  2. You may then add these images to layout templates by selecting "Image" as the content type when defining groupings (a cell and all of the tables, rows, and cells within that cell). See "Creating or Editing Groupings" below.
  3. Copia displays all of the images that have been added to the database.
  4. Select the Show active only checkbox at the top of the Images page to specify that the image is active in the system. You set the inactive/active status when adding or editing images (see below).
  5. If you cannot find the desired image, click the Add New Image button to add an image. Copia displays the fields in the Images page that allow you to add a new image.
  6. To edit an existing image, click the image or its name on the main Images page. You may edit the Active status, the Name of the file, or select a different image, as you would for a new image (see above).
  7. To delete an image, you must follow the steps to edit an image (see above), and change the path to point to a different image to replace the existing one.
  8. When you are finished adding or editing images, click the Save button to save changes made on the page, or click the Cancel button to close the Images page and return to the Layout Templates administration page without saving changes. Your new and edited images are now available for you to select when you edit the cell contents of a cell with a cell type of "Image." Copia resizes the image (the proportions will be constrained) to the size of the cell, so changing the width of the cell will change the size of the image. See "Creating or Editing Groupings" below.
  9. Note: Copia adds the full-sized image to the PDF document. This means that if you upload a very large image and place it on a report, then the PDF will be very large in size and may take a bit longer for Copia to display.

Creating or Editing Groupings

  1. When you customize templates, you create or edit groupings of data, organized in a table format. When defining groupings, note the following:

  3. Click a T button in one of the customizable sections of the page to open the Edit Table pop-up to customize the contents of the table.
  4. Click the C button to open the Cell Menu pop-up, which allows you to add or remove elements in the selected cell grouping. Copia highlights the selected cell on the page so you can more easily track which cell you are modifying.
  5. To delete existing tables, rows, and cells, move your mouse over an element to have Copia highlight it, and then drag the element over the Delete box and release the left mouse button.
  6. Once you have finished customizing the groupings for the current template, continue defining the rest of the template. See the various template definition topics above for additional information.

  2. To add columns, select the type of column you wish to add, and then click the Add button. Copia automatically inserts the column in front of the existing columns, but you may use the move buttons to adjust the order (see below). Note that you may wish to insert blank columns between other columns to make the data easier to review in headers and footers; however, this option is not available for all templates.
  3. To edit a column, click the Edit button to open the Edit Column pop-up, which allows you to set the column width, alignment, and formatting for the column header and column content. Click OK to record the new settings, or click Cancel to return to the Layout Templates administration page without retaining your changes.
  4. To move columns, click the < or > buttons beneath the column's name. Copia shifts the column one place in the direction you choose.
  5. To delete a column from the layout, click the X button beneath the column's name. Copia immediately removes the column from the display.
  6. Once you have finished customizing the columns for the current template, continue defining the rest of the template. See the various template definition topics above for additional information.
