This feature only applies to Data Sets accessed from a local shared folder (i.e., the sharepath). For information on filtering or categorizing Data Sets accessed from a network location, see Configuring Site-Based Data Set Filtering.
By default, a Front Office Scanning solution is configured to access all Data Sets from one location (i.e., the sharepath). In this scenario, all Data Sets are placed into one folder and all users have access to the available pool of Data Sets.
Based on the scope and design of your solution, it may be desirable to organize Data Sets by sub-sets or categories. For example, in a hospital, patient information Data Sets may be categorized by the department that the patient is registered in (e.g., Emergency Medicine, Radiology, Oncology, Outpatient Laboratory, etc.).
When Data Sets are organized by sub-categories, users may be able to work more efficiently (i.e., users are not searching through a large number of Data Sets in the Available Data Sets list to find the one they need) and data may be more secure (i.e., users are only able to access Data Sets that are relevant to the work they need to complete).
To organize Data Sets by sub-categories, you must follow the steps below
Once Data Sets are organized by category, users can select, from within the Front Office Scanning client, which categories that they would like to show the Data Sets for. For more information, see Selecting the Data Set Category.
