Editing Vaccinations
Use
You can use this procedure to assign vaccinations and document their details for persons who have to be vaccinated owing to their
tasks or activities.
You have the following options for accessing the vaccination editing function:
Requirements
Customizing
In Customizing for Occupational Health, you have created one or more health surveillance protocol categories under Specify
Protocol Categories that are identi able as vaccinations (for example, vaccination, immunization). For more information, see the
documentation for the IMG activity.
To ensure that the system can determine the sequence and frequencies for any follow-up vaccinations or boosters, you must also
have created examination types in Customizing that represent the series of vaccinations. For more information, see the
Implementation Guide (IMG) for Occupational Health under Specify Examination Types.
Application
In the Basic Data (EHS-HEA-BD) component, you have created health surveillance protocols for the protocol categories you use
for vaccinations (see Editing Health Surveillance Protocols). You have assigned the relevant time periods to these health
surveillance protocols (see Stipulated Time Periods for Health Surveillance Protocols).
You have set the protocols to the status Active. This is necessary so that you can assign persons to the health surveillance
protocols.
Procedure

The characters for the rst three elds, service_prov , person_reference , and exam_code , make up the key that is used to assign
the data in the ASCII le to the corresponding object in the SAP system. To do this, the key eld person_reference must be
speci ed rst. The entry in this eld can be a medical service number, a personnel number, or a social insurance number. In the
Customizing activity Specify References for Importing Medical Data for occupational health, you can specify for each
examination category which of the three objects data should be assigned to.
You must make all required entries in the Customizing activity Specify Examination Categories :
Specify the database table in which the imported examination results are saved.
The database table can contain more elds than the respective import structure.
Specify the table type that is used for processing imported medical examination results.
Specify the DDIC structure that maps one line in the le to import.
The descriptions of the structure components must match the eld labels of the database table, because the import takes
place using name equality.
The order of the structure components must match, however, the order of the elds in the le for the import, because they
are imported in the de ned order.
The eld lengths of the individual structure components must match the lengths used in the import le.
The eld lengths in the structure must match at least the eld lengths in the le. In all other cases, the data will be
truncated.
If additional elds are lled in the database table or if a data conversion before saving is required, you can implement the BAdI
Import of Medical Data (Examination Results) accordingly.
Features
The further you go into the medical service, the more restrictions you can impose on the number of data records that are
imported.
https://help.sap.com/http.svc/dynamicpdfcontentpreview?deliverable_id=20833163&topics=7d74b6535fe6b74ce10000000a… 21/27

With the BAdI Import of Medical Data (Examination Results) , you can ll further elds, carry out data conversions, and
conduct checks, or implement additional functions after saving data.
You can display a log of successful and unsuccessful imports. The log is entered in the application log under the object
EHS_OH_IM (EHS-OH: Import of Medical Data) or under the subobject EHS_OH_EXA (Import of Examination Results).
The corresponding examination category is saved as an external indication of the application log entry, for example, “01”
for the import of audiogram data.
Activities
Import Examination Results
Completion of Questionnaires
Use
The options for completing questionnaires are the following:
If you have direct access to the SAP System, you can complete an occupational health questionnaire directly in the system.
Example
The physician responsible has access to the SAP system in the consultation room. The physician calls the medical
service for the person being examined, or creates a new medical service. The person being examined is with the
physician in the consultation room. The physician accesses the questionnaire from the medical service and asks the
person the questions that it contains. The person’s answers are entered directly in the system. The physician saves the
questionnaire and closes it.
If you do not have direct access to the SAP system, you can print out the questionnaire and scan it back into the system
again after it has been completed.
If you want to create one single questionnaire by combining all the questionnaires assigned to the different health surveillance
protocols in a medical service, you must set the Merge indicator for the protocol assignment category VOR in Customizing for
Occupational Health . Only the questionnaires are determined that are being entered for the whole health surveillance protocol or
for the speci ed examination category of the corresponding health surveillance protocol.
Questions that are the same in all the questionnaires are only asked once. The advantage of this is that the person being examined
only has to complete one questionnaire.
If you have not set the Merge indicator, all the questionnaires are displayed or printed out one after the other.
Integration
This function is called from a medical service.

You can display the questionnaire in different languages. You can do this only if the catalog entries have been
translated into the relevant language. If this is not the case, the questionnaire is displayed and printed in the
language in which it was originally created.
It is usually the questions answered with Yes that are relevant for the physician. This is because these questions
often reveal that the person is exposed to particular agents.
Additional Information
You can display other information about the questionnaire, such as the date created, date changed, last person to
make changes, or whether the questionnaire has been printed out, scanned in, or closed.
You can print the questionnaire so that the person being examined can complete it on paper.
After the questionnaire is completed, you scan it in and change the format to ASCII, so that the data can be read
into the system (see Transferring Data from a Scanned In Questionnaire ).
