Hello,
Is there a way to configure a footer on the report template? Whenever the report is short,my "footer" stays in the middle of the page instead of the bottom. What html code should I use so footers always stay at the bottom of the report?
Thanks!
Rodrigo

Re: Report Template
Hello -
If you are viewing or printing your reports from online then you may try to set an div tag to have a style with a min-height attribute.
1. Go to edit the report template. Admin -> Report Template
2. Click on "Tools" -> Source code
3. Consider where to add a min-height attribute and how much height to use. For example you may surround the REPORT_BODY token or add it to a higher level div tag. Modify the min-height pixels from 500px to a value that makes sense with your report templates.
This won't necessarily work when exporting to PDF, but as a work around you could use a PDF printer when printing the report from the online version.
Regards

Hello Jeremy,
Thank you for your quick reply.
What you have suggested does not work for single and double page reports. It works only with one or the other because it depends on the size of the box created. We have reports that are one and two pages and we need the header containing the patient information and the footer containing the clinic information are printed in all pages for security information. Physicians have been complaining that two page reports are a security issue because the second page does not contain any reference to which patient it refers to.
We thought about adding that patient information after the doctor's signature but the report would look really funky that way. What other options do we have? Ideally OnePacs should determine the number of pages the report will have and then create the image with the header and footer repeating on all pages of the report.
Thank you for your help.

Re: Report Template
Hello.
My suggestions are as followings:
1. I would first recommend changing the report templates to have minimally vertical wasted space. I see some of your templates have a table row that contains no data, several line breaks that may be unnecessary. You can try to decrease the size of the header images or specify a slightly smaller font size on all font elements to decrease the size of the report with the goal of nearly all reports fitting on a single page.
2. As you stated, put some patient information after the signatures so that if the report does split it is contains the information on both pages.
3. Have two different report templates. One that is designed for a single page and one for a two page report. Have the facility default to the one page report template and if necessary change the template to a two page template when completing the report.
We will keep in mind your suggestion and attempt to better incorporate a footer as a possible future enhancement.

If you print from the browser (by using the print icon from the view report screen), you can setup your page layout to include a footer with page number and total pages. You can also include the title of the page which will include some patient/study information. In Internet Explorer, the page setup can be found under File -> Page Setup. Change the footer section to include the "Page # of total Pages" and "Title" options.
