The Select Procedure window is used throughout the Account Module to associate procedures to charges.
In the Edit Adjustment window, click Attach.
Alternatively, when attaching a procedure to a Paysplit, click Attach.
This window shows users outstanding charges along with a financial breakdown. Use this information when creating paysplits or adjustments to prevent procedures from being overpaid.
Credit Filter
There are three options to filter the procedures.
- Only allocated credits: Show all procedures that do not have enough attached credits (e.g., paysplits, adjustments) to cover the full cost of the procedure (i.e., procedures that have attached paysplits that only cover part of the cost).
- Include all credits: Show all procedures that are not paid off using first in/first out logic. This logic applies when credits in a payment are not explicitly attached/allocated to procedures. Selected by default when the Adjustments preference in Allocations Setup is set to Manual.
- Exclude all credits: Show all procedures on this patient's account regardless of attached credits.
Note: When this window is opened from a Paysplit and
Allow prepayments to allocate to treatment planned procedures is enabled in
Allocations Setup, treatment planned procedures are also included.

- Date: Procedure date.

Select Account Entries
The Select Account Entries window is nearly identical to the Select Procedure window. Multiple procedures can be selected from this window, unlike the Select Procedure window. When selecting multiple procedures, the Breakdown reflects totals for all selected procedures.
In the Account Module, click the Payment dropdown and Allocate Unearned. If the family has an Unearned / Prepayment balance, Select Account Entries is opened, and the credit filter defaults to Only Allocated Credits.
If Allow prepayments to allocate to treatment planned procedures is enabled in Allocations Setup, treatment planned procedure are included in the Procedures list. Select one or more production items and click OK or double-click a single item to Allocate Unearned Income.
