D. The parent menu of the activity record
a
You have built a component record. Now, in the Designer UI, you click Add Component but can’t
find your component in the catalog. Why not?
A. You are trying to add the component to a view instead of to the source. You can only
add components to the source from the Designer UI.
B. Your component isn’t enabled.
C. You haven’t refreshed the dashboard! Click ALT + = to refresh.
D. You must not have access to the component. You can only add components to a
dashboard if you have access to them.
B ‐ your component isn’t enabled
- True or False. Every source dashboard has exactly one view.
False ‐ Each user can create one or more views of a single source dashboard
SlicerDicer Populations
True or False: SlicerDicer can be used to report on any data that has ever been entered into Epic.
False. SlicerDicer can only be used to report on data that has been extracted to Caboodle.
A SlicerDicer population is showing all smokers with PCPs in your clinic. You would like to see these
patients grouped by their different PCPs, with one bar per provider. How would you do this?
Choose only ONE answer.
A. Add a criterion
B. Change your measure
C. Add a slice
D. Change your visualization
c) Add a slice
- Which of Epic’s databases contains real‐time data?
A. Chronicles
B. Clarity
C. Caboodle
a
Which of Epic’s databases are relational databases?
A. Chronicles
B. Clarity
C. Caboodle
b,c
- True or False. You can use the Record Viewer to look up a list of columns in a Clarity Table.
False. Use the Record Viewer to view data from a record in Chronicles. Use the Clarity Dictionary to
look up the columns in a Clarity table.
- What is the difference between a record and a contact?
A record is a single entity. What kind of thing depends on the master file ‐ a record in the patient master file is a patient, a record in the provider master file is a provider, etc.
A contact represents a single set of data (usually representing a unique time period) on that record.
What is the difference between a multiple response item and a response each time item?
These refer to different item characteristics. “Multiple response” refers to a particular Response Type.
A multiple response item can hold multiple answers on one contact. “Response each time” refers to a
particular Add Type. A response each time item can hold different answers on different contacts.
True or False: A patient who has been seen twice at your facility should have two records in the
Patient master file.
False ‐ The patient should only have one record, but that record will have two contacts.
A user shows you a field in Hyperspace that they want to report on. How can you find where in
Chronicles that field files to?
Control‐click it. If that doesn’t work, try using the Record Viewer.
- What master file stores dashboard resources?
IDK
What master file stores metric definitions?
IDN
If a table component has a data source of “Report”, will it leverage the metric framework?
No. A Data Source of Dashboard Resource indicates a component will use the Metric Framework
True or False: A metric definition may only be referenced by one dashboard resource record.
False.
A user ran a REPORT to find all geriatric patients but now wants to limit the report to only patients who have arthritis.
The report includes a column to display the patients’ medical problems.
How can the user limit the report to only arthritic patients without re‐running it?
Use the Filters tab, and filter the Medical Problem column on the value “arthritis”
- Who can find a public report in the Analytics Catalog?
If a user can see a template in the Analytics Catalog, they will be able to view and run all the public
reports made from the template.
- True or False. A private report is one that anyone can run, but only the creator can edit.
False.
- What is the difference between a parameter and a display column?
A parameter is used by the query. It will determine which results are found at run time. A display
column is used to display information about the results that are found.
- What Master File stores one record for every display column in Chronicles? Choose only ONE
answer.
A. HRX
B. PAF
C. IDB
b
- What should you do before creating a new display column?

- For REPORTS, How could you find out what options are available for you to use in dividing up a pie chart,
choosing categories for your bar graph, or setting up levels of a grouped summary?
Check the list of Available and Used columns in the Display tab of your report.
- What controls the list of available measures in SlicerDicer?
Measures are chosen from the list of SlicerDicer Filters (FDS records) available in a given data model.
- True or False: In table components, the colored indicators can have different thresholds for each
row.
True. On the Thresholds tab in the Output Format form, you can specify overrides for each row to
have its own thresholds.
- What causes of concern would we have about a table component with the following threshold
settings?
Column Lower Bound Upper Bound Alert
Percent 34 67 Yellow
Percent 0 33 Green

always be three separate people.
False. Database administrators sometimes oversee operation of more than one database.
- True or False. A new Reporting Workbench security class must be created for each user.
False. A Reporting Workbench Security Class can be assigned to multiple user records. It is
recommended to reuse security classes as often as possible.
True or False. Only administrators with the right security can build a report from an unconfigured
template.
False. If a template is unconfigured no one will be able to see the template in the Analytics Catalog.
- What must be assigned to a template so that the template is considered configured?

D. List appropriate report groups on the dashboard in the Dashboard Editor
b, c, d
- What is an HRX record?
A Workbench report, a SlicerDicer session, or one of the many other application reports stored in
HRX
- When looking at a PAF record in the Column Editor or Record Viewer, how could a user determine
which templates/reports include this column?
They couldn’t. PAF records don’t contain a reference to the reports or templates which use them.
In the Designer UI, which components can you add to a source dashboard?
Any enabled components.
How could you change the Display title of a component?
To change the display title, in the Component Editor update the Display title field on the Display form. You can also change the display title of a component through the designer UI
Define the following SlicerDicer terms:
Population:
Filter:
Slice:
Population: a collection of entities in a data model. A population starts with the base and is
refined by the criteria
Filter: the word filter is used in SlicerDicer to refer to the many data points defined in a data
model. Filters can be used as criteria, as slices, as measures, and as display columns in the
detail view.
Slice: a slice divides up a population in SlicerDicer.
Who is the intended audience of SlicerDicer?
SlicerDicer is a self‐service reporting tool designed
for end users.
Information in Chronicles is divided into _______that contain information about a broad
subject.
A. Tables
B. Master Files
C. Contacts
D. Lines
B
Which of the following are SQL databases?
A. Chronicles
B. Clarity
C. Caboodle
B,C
What does add type tell you about an item?
How long the data is valid for ﴾record‐level or contactlevel﴿
What does response type tell you about an item?
How many lines of data the item can hold
- What is the difference between a metric definition ﴾IDN﴿ and a dashboard resource ﴾IDK﴿?
A metric
determines how a particular value is calculated, i.e. the definition of the metric. A dashboard
resource determines how a particular metric is presented to a user within the frame of a
component.
Where can you go to research Epic‐released metrics to use in your build?
A. Google
B. UserWeb > Metric Repository
C. UserWeb > Cogito Benchmarking topic
D. Analytics Catalog
B. UserWeb > Metric Repository
When do the Summary Level ﴾e.g. Department or Service Area﴿ and Summary Target specified on a
dashboard override a component’s settings?
If a component has the data source of Dashboard
Resources and uses a dynamic lookup method, then the dashboard’s summary level and target will
override the component’s settings.
Look at the dashboard component below. On the Data Source form of this component, is View as
set to Summary Targets or Resources?
Resources
Why would someone want to use Reporting Workbench in place of SlicerDicer?
Needs today’s
data, SlicerDicer doesn’t contain the data points the user wants, user wants to take many different
actions on the data,
A report writer creates and runs a new report from an existing template in their Analytics Catalog.
They then create a new component to put on their existing dashboard that contains a link to the
new report. In which master files will this report writer build new records?
IDB ﴾Component﴿ and HRX ﴾Report﴿

True or False:
Nobody can see your dashboard from the Analytics Catalog until you select both the Ready
for use and Enabled for user selection checkboxes.
T
To view a dashboard as you are making changes to it, you will need to Save your settings in the Dashboard Editor by:
A) Hard refresh your dashboard
B) navigate to another form in the Dashboard Editor.
C) Accept to close the Dashboard Editor
D) Press F5
A,B,C
- Save your settings in the Dashboard Editor
The easiest way to save your settings is to navigate to another form in the Dashboard Editor.
Settings are also saved when you click Accept to close the Dashboard Editor, but doing so means it will take longer to return to this record if you wish to make further edits. - Hard refresh your dashboard.
While viewing your dashboard, use the keyboard shortcut of ALT + = ﴾Mac
users: Option + Command + =﴿.
True or False
If your component is not marked Enabled, then you won’t be able to find it in the Analytics Catalog to add it to a view or source dashboard.
T
Not all data models have a “My Records” base. To see which bases are available for a data
model
A, Open a new session with that data model
B, Check the “base” entry in the population.
C, All of the above
C
True or False
SlicerDicer Filters with the Last Stored modifier will not be affected by the date range in SlicerDicer.
T
Using bar color as a measure:
What is better
A) Red‐green or dark‐light scale to indicate values that are either bad or good.
B) Complex or nonstandard color schemes
A
Using bar color as a measure is powerful but can confuse people.
It is most effective when used simply on a red‐green or dark‐light scale to indicate values that are either bad or good.
Complex or nonstandard color schemes can obfuscate the data.
Where is the only place users get to see identified health information in SlicerDicer.
A) Measures
B) Population
C) The Detail Table
C
The Detail Table is the only place users get to see identified health information in SlicerDicer.
As such, there are security points that can limit a user’s access to this feature.
True or False:
The allowed Bases vary between data models.
T
Each data model can link only to a subset of available data models.
When a data model is built, the list of related models is determined by
A) The Resource Assigned
B) The builder based on the logical relationships in the database
C) Relationships in the database.
B
Each data model can link only to a subset of available data models. When a data model is built, the list of related models is determined by the builder based on the logical relationships in the database. For example, a list of medication orders may easily translate into a list of charges, but a not into a list of BPAs.
In Epic shorthand, an item may be referenced as “I EPT 110” ﴾”I” stands for “item,” “EPT” is the master file, and “110” is the item number﴿. A record may be referenced as “R SER 21800”
What does the “R” stand for and What does the “SER” stand for and what does the 21800 represent?
﴾”R” stands for “record,” “SER” is the master file, and 21800 is the record ID﴿.
Add type determines whether item values are specific to one contact, or whether values apply to all of the record’s contacts
- No‐add items store _____________________?
- Response each time items store ___________?
*Lookback items store_____________________?
Match the correct value
*store values separately on each contact
*store record‐level data
* store values separately on each contact but is not populated
* store values together
- No‐add items store record‐level data.
- Response each time items store values separately on each contact.
*Lookback items store values separately on each contact, much like response each time items. The only difference is that if a lookback item is not populated, the system ‘looks back’ to the most recent contact
Response type determines how many values an item can hold at once.
Single or Multiple?:
Single response _______?
Multiple response ______?
Related group __________?
Match the correct answer:
*Only one line of data can be stored at once.
* Multiple response
* Multiple response
* Partial Response
Response type determines how many values an item can hold at once.
Single response -Only one line of data can be stored at once.
Multiple response -﴾Multiple﴿
Related group ﴾Multiple﴿
Only some items are networked items. You can identify an item as networked if:
A) The Item Information window for that item contains a “Network INI” field
B) The item’s definition in Item Editor contains a “Network” category
C) The Record Viewer value for that item contains a hyperlink
D) All of the Above
D
Only some items are networked items. You can identify an item as networked if:
*The Item Information window for that item contains a “Network INI” field
*The item’s definition in Item Editor contains a “Network” category
>If there is a Contact pointer? field in this section, the item points to a contact
*The Record Viewer value for that item contains a hyperlink (Each of these locations will also tell you the INI of the networked master file.)
Only some items are indexed. You can identify an item as indexed if:
A)The Item Information window for that item contains a “Indexed” field, set to true.
B)The item’s definition in Item Editor contains a “Indexing” category.
C)Hovering over the item in the Record Viewer shows “Has Index” in the help text.
D) The index item is highlighted in BLUE
E) All of the above
A, B, C
Only some items are indexed. You can identify an item as indexed if:
*The Item Information window for that item contains a “Indexed” field, set to true.
*The item’s definition in Item Editor contains a “Indexing” category.
*Hovering over the item in the Record Viewer shows “Has Index” in the help text.
True of False:
Contact:
A contact stores a snapshot of data at Many points of time in a record.
F
Contact:
A contact stores a snapshot of data at one point of time in a record.
True or False:
Item:
An item stores individual data within a record or contact.
T
Item:
An item stores individual data within a record or contact.
True or False:
You typically can directly edit Epic released content.
F
You typically cannot directly edit Epic released content. Instead, you must make a copy of
those Epic‐released records and edit the copy.
IDK and IDN records are exceptions: you may make changes that directly impact these
records without copying them. The system will create an override record to reflect these
changes. In order to migrate your records, you will need to enter “base.”
instead of the record ID. Contact your Cogito and Data Courier teams for assistance.
True or False:
Forecasting uses statistical or predictive analytics.
F
Forecasting does not use any statistical or predictive analytics. It is a simple forecast based on a function of previous values.
True or False:
In the Dashboard Editor, you can enable the checkbox on the Resource Settings form to override the dynamic summary target selection of any components and allow dashboard‐wide summary target selection instead.
F
This will only affect components that have a lookup method other than “Specific Value” set on the Data Source form.
Before making any changes to an existing report, or beginning build on a new report What MUST you do?
Navigate to the General tab to give your report a name
Click either Save or Save As
Before making any changes to an existing report, or beginning build on a new report, navigate to the General tab to give your report a name and click either Save or Save As. Save As will create a new copy of an existing report.
True or False:
In order to share the results, the report template must allow sharing of results.
T
In order to share the results, the report template must allow sharing of results.
What determines the ability to add criteria on the fly to a report
A) The template the report is made from needs to be set up to allow users to add criteria on the fly.
B) You have to have the security to add criteria on the fly.
C) User Group must have these rights
D) All of the above
A,B
The ability to add criteria on the fly to a report is based on several factors.
The template the report is made from needs to be set up to allow users to add criteria on the fly.
You have to have the security to add criteria on the fly. Not everyone who can edit reports can add new criteria to the list.
How can Time-sensitive parameters be identified and where?
Time-sensitive parameters can be identified by the presence of a clock icon on the Criteria tab.
Only time‐sensitive parameters respect the date range on a workbench report.
What should be done to help prevent duplicate columns being made?
Before you create a new column, always check to make sure there isn’t an existing column that you could use. This will help prevent duplicate columns being made. The Epic‐released template Find Report Columns [R HGR 3042] is a good resource to help with this research.
True or False
A report model is like a report and can be edited.
F
A report model is not a report. It is a record that can help create a new report.
Report models cannot be edited, but after building a report from a report model, you can edit the new report.
True or False:
A component can confer access to a report and will Display for the user
False
No component can confer access to a report not already available in the viewing user’s Analytics Catalog. If the link is to a report the user cannot normally access, the link does not display.
True or False:
Released records can be edited in your environment.
F
Released records cannot be edited in your
environment. If you wish to customize an Epic-released record, you must create your own copy and edit that instead.
True or False:
Dashboard components linked to a Workbench report will display the exact same data as is seen in the Workbench report.
T
Dashboard components linked to a Workbench report will display the exact same data as is seen in the Workbench report. However, a SlicerDicer component may not exactly mirror a Workbench report without a lot of research into the exact items used by the Workbench summary and how those items move into Caboodle.
True or False:
There is no grouping when using line graphs
F
Even line graphs work on the principle of grouping. Most line graphs group data by day, month, or year and summarize all the events that share that date characteristic.
When choosing how to summarize.
(Select all that apply)
A) DO NOT use a count function on numeric data to find total amount.
B) DO NOT use count unique unless you want to display “number of different values.”
C) When using an average function, find out if the column stores a NULL or a 0 when no data is entered.
D) All of the above
D
There are several common errors made when choosing how to summarize. Follow these rules.
DO NOT use a count function on numeric data to find total amount.
DO NOT use count unique unless you want to display “number of different values.”
When using an average function, find out if the column stores a NULL or a 0 when no data is entered.
True or False
Line graphs in Workbench reports cannot conceal gaps in the data.
False
Line graphs in Workbench reports can conceal gaps in the data. A line graph fundamentally groups the same way other summaries do, which means no group is created if no data exists. Imagine a line graph showing cases of hospital‐acquired pneumonia week‐by‐week. If
there were ever a week with 0 cases, that week would not show up on the graph, and the line would just skip from the week before to the week after.
True or False
The component will evaluate rows from right to left.
F
The component will evaluate these rows from top to bottom. If two rows have overlapping boundaries, whichever row comes first in the table will determine the threshold used.
Radar evaluates thresholds first by specificity and then by order. Consider the thresholds
below. What color indicator would be displayed for a Percentage value of 50?
As the Percentage thresholds are more specific than the thresholds, Radar
evaluates with the Percentage thresholds. Next, as the green boundary is defined above the
yellow boundary, a value of 50 would evaluate to Green.
True or False
In the thresholds table below, a value of 49.5 would qualify for a row and an indicator would appear.
F
In the thresholds table below, a value of 49.5 would not qualify for any row and no indicator would appear.
It is good practice to have an overlap across rows. If a value does not fall within any threshold bounds that you’ve defined, it will appear with no indicators.
True or False
A saved session on a dashboard will look the same for two users who have different security.
F
As with all reports in Hyperspace, SlicerDicer sessions will only show content for which the logged in user has the proper security. A saved session on a dashboard can look different for two users who have different security. Administrators must consider the audience of a
dashboard and adjust their distribution strategy as needed.
A Reporting Workbench search can be built in one of three different methods.
Choose all that Apply:
A) Ad Hoc search engine
B) M search engine
C) SQL search engine.
D) SlicerDicer search engine
A,B,C
A Reporting Workbench search can be built in one of three different methods. You can use an Ad Hoc search engine, an M search engine, or a SQL search engine.
Tur or False:
Everyone can see another user’s Analytics Catalog.
F
Not everyone can see another user’s Analytics Catalog. This can only be done by users with the proper security.
True or False:
Charges that are transactions, and charges in the router ﴾often called charge lines). Are the same.
F
The Charge Router is a process that happens before charges are created in Professional Billing. Be careful to differentiate between charges that are transactions, and charges in the router ﴾often called charge lines﴿.
True or False
Workbench line graphs should not be used for data sparse data sets that may have dates that lack data.
T
Workbench line graphs should not be used for data sparse data sets that may have dates that lack data. Any point in the date range with no rows in the results will not create a point on the plot, which can obscure the data.
If you can be sure that every point in the range will have summary data, then the line graph
will summarize correctly.
True or False:
There is one Provider ﴾SER﴿ record for each person or resource meeting ANY of the following criteria:
