HG SCREEN

Understanding the Display/Amend PCO Information Screen 

This screen is used to display  core  information for an existing PCO. 

Users with FULL access rights to the HG screen can add or amend PCO  core  

information.  Users with Read Only access or Abbreviated access can only either: 

          press the  key to view the practice composition of the PCO; or 

          enter a different PCO code in the qualifier, to view details for another PCO. 

NOTE 

If the selected PCO has been closed, the screen display will be read only, as 

shown in Figure 6 on page 12 12.

Date registered

Date closed 

The date when this PCO was closed.  If the PCO is current, this field will be blank.

data for that PCO. 

The date entered here effectively becomes the end date for the latest live relationship for 

the PCO.  See the heading  Closing a PCO  on page 12 12.
