Interim Archive in Scotland

In Scotland only, you may only need to use the Interim Archive option at the request of the HB. This archives the Completed Transactions File from the date of the last archive to the present date, and produces an Interim Quarterly Certificate. It could possibly be used during a quarter after a practice dispute, for example. Before starting the archive, carry out a backup of your medical system.

  1. Select Action - Archive, then select Interim Archive.
  2. Select Process.
  3. Confirm the date with OK. The Interim Archive includes records up to this date.
  4. You are advised if there are no completed transactions to archive.
  5. Confirm that you have carried out a recent backup. If so, continue.
  6. Select a destination folder and make sure the printer is on-line and loaded. Continue.
  7. Make sure the printer is on-line and loaded with paper, as the Interim Certificate is printed.
  8. Once the files have been copied to the drive specified and the certificates have printed successfully, you can confirm, or reprint the certificate.
