Which Analytical report characteristic is described below...
The readers of analytical reports are often not Epic end users; they're managers and executives who expect their data to be presented in a certain format. In addition, they may want to see non-Epic data, such as payroll information, integrated with Epic data. - ANSWER- Standardized
When faced with an analytical reporting need, there's generally
one tool of choice: - ANSWER- Clarity
_____ is a tool that extracts data from your Chronicles production system, transforms it into a relational format, and loads it onto a separate reporting server - ANSWER- Clarity
Consider the example reporting request:
- / 4
- | P a g e
Total number of appointments scheduled in each of your clinics over the last year, broken down by clinic and showing the average length of each clinic's appointments
You might try to attack this reporting need using the operational reporting tools discussed above, but you'd likely run into two
problems: - ANSWER- Performance - over a year's worth of
data /a significant drain on system resources
Flexibility - total number and average length of appointments in each clinic. Operational reports generally do not display summary information.
Name the advantages to meeting an analytical need with Clarity
- ANSWER- Performance
If you report on Clarity data rather than production data, running your report will not impact your end users in production. This means you can run reports of arbitrarily large size without any problems (other than slowing down other Clarity reports running at the same time).
Flexibility Since Clarity data is in an industry-standard format, you can access it using industry-standard tools such as Crystal Reports. 2 / 4

These tools generally support a wide range of calculation, formatting and summarization tools.
Since your Clarity server runs industry-standard database software (Oracle, MS-SQL Server, or Teradata), you can load data from your Clarity database into a ____ _____ along with your non epic data. - ANSWER- data warehouse
If your report needs large quantities of data, complex mathematics or summarization, or data integration with other systems, then _____ is your tool - ANSWER- Clarity
Take the following example of a report that should not be
attempted using Clarity:
Currently admitted patients requiring a new IV within the next two hours. A user should be able to jump from a patient shown on this report to the patient's chart.
If you tried to meet this reporting need with Clarity, you would
quickly run into two deal-breakers: - ANSWER- Real-Time
Data Clarity extracts data from production on a daily, weekly, or even less-often basis. Clarity data should always be assumed to be at least 24 hours out of date. 3 / 4
- | P a g e
Clarity reports are often delivered via email or an external reporting portal. The reports are not going to be as integrated into end-users' workflows as, for example, Application Reports.
You may find a reporting need that requires real-time data and large quantities of it. Once you've established that the reporting need really does require real-time data, how should you find a way to meet the need? - ANSWER- Use an operational tool by breaking the report down into several smaller reports that can be run at different times. Since Clarity data is not extracted in real- time, the need for real-time data precludes the use of Clarity.
Clarity data has historically been distributed by means outside of Hyperspace, such as - ANSWER- Email delivery or a third-party reporting portal
What are two mechanisms available that allow you to integrate
your Clarity reports into Hyperspace: - ANSWER- Epic-Crystal
Integration
Radar.
Using ____-____ _____, a Crystal Report based off of Clarity data can be configured to appear in the My Reports activity in
