View source for Missing Hospital Numbers from BIBID Import

{{ProductTopic|Technical (IT)|Instructions}}

=== Overview ===

In early versions of the BIBID Import software, the Hospital Number field didn't transfer correctly.  The problem was fixed with version 1.1 and the solution is to re-run the BIBID import software.  Doing so will fill any gaps in the Hospital Number for previously imported records.  
* It will not overwrite any hospital numbers you may have added since
* It will not affect any new patient records you may have added since installing iBID.
* It will not overwrite or re-import any other iBID data.

=== Prerequisites ===

In order to run the BIBID Import you need:

*The Firebird Client Library installing on the same PC as the import will run
*The server name and path of the BIBID database.

If you install the iBID client application on a PC that already has BIBID installed on it, then the above pre-requisites are taken care of.

=== Running the import===

In the latest versions of iBID, the BIBID Data Transfer option is not advertised, however the software application is still installed and can be accessed directly.  

The program is called '''importbibid.exe''' & it can be found in the iBID installation folder:

 %localappdata%\Evolution Healthcare Systems Limited\AquilaCRS-32\importbibid.exe

Run the '''importbibid.exe''' application and follow the standard import instructions: [[Import from BIBID v1]]

Once the import program has finished, you should have the missing hospital numbers in your database.  Please check this is the case and contact [www.EvoHelpdesk.co.uk] in the event of any problems.
