How can I import a spreadsheet?

You may import a payment data spreadsheet to view within the HIPAA Premium Payment Master application. The import will be created based on the pre-set configurations and adds the data required to complete the import.

 

Payment Data:
Open the file and add the correct data as per the field data type. The "Header" and "Detail" records have one common "PaymentID" field to establish the relationship between both data sets. Below are the database tables that store the header and detail data.
 

To begin importing a spreadsheet, follow the steps below:

 

1.Go to Data Base > Excel Import in the main menu window.
