Understanding Quick Pick Options
For certain data entry fields, find items from a list for quick selection.
This area is entered the same as with the General Setup, Quick Pick Setup.
Entries are available in the Billing and Account/Subscription Modules if a Quick Pick Button appears at the end of a field, helping reduce keystrokes and maintain consistency.
For Example: the Site Code field could be setup to display a list of Service Areas in a County. As part of data entry, the user can click the Quick Pick icon to the right of the field and select from the pre-defined list of values created in Quick Pick Setup.

Quick Picks can be found for the following fields:
- Account Notes: list of Account Flag Notes used in the Accounts/Subscription Module, Narrative Tab
- Action: list of reasons a bill is routed to a user in the Billing Module, Router Tab.
- Apt/Other: is commonly entered information for Addresses.
- Attachment File Types: are types of documents that are scanned and attached in the system. This Quick Pick Category is only used with the Manage Attachment Files feature.
- Billing Remarks: is used for Patient and Commercial Payers (Invoice and Blank), in the Remarks fields under Additional Information.
- Dues: must be established before Dues are entered. Values should represent the consistent amount, but can be changed. This Quick Pick Type is only used with the Accounts/Subscription Module, Subscription Tab.
- Excluded Zip Codes: is used with the Mailing Labels and Cards functionality. Entries here prevent the Zip Code from printing when generating Labels or Cards, with the related Zip Code option. Keep in mind that this category and functionality is meant to prevent certain Zip Codes from being part of a Subscription Drive.
- Geographic Code: values identify specific Subscription Drives, typically based on the area (but not a specific Zip Code). These entries are selected in the Geographic Code Field, and are used with specific reports. This Quick Pick Type is only used with the Accounts/Subscription Module, Subscription Tab.
- Included Zip Codes: list is used with the Mailing Labels and Cards functionality. Entries here include the Zip Code in printing when generating labels or cards, with the related Zip Code option. This functionality is meant to provide an additional filter, especially if certain Zip Codes are to be targeted in Subscription Drive solicitations. This Quick Pick Type is only used with the Subscription Module.
- Inquiry Caller: lists types of callers a user talks with regarding a Bill or Account in the Call History section.
- Commercial Electronic ID: lists specific payer ID numbers in various locations of the Billing Module.

- Suffix: is used for related patients who have the same name.
- Taxonomy Code: is used if billing for different taxonomies, additional taxonomy codes are entered here. Note: With entries in this Quick Pick, the Taxonomy Code Field appears (on Gateway 5010 EDI Payer) in the Miscellaneous Information Tab.
