What does the person adding a new user need?

• Access to Menu Option XUSERNEW
• Key XUMGR or delegated keys and menus.
• Key XUSPF200 (optional) to not be required to enter SSNs.

Access to XUSERNEW is typically done through EVE > XUSER (User Management). If you have XUMGR, you can give any keys or menus. If not, you can only give keys and menus delegated to you (I don't cover delegation here).

Required Data Elements for a Functional User

Providers get PROVIDER key as well as an ordering key (ORES or ORELSE). Physicians/other providers get ORES to be able to order meds; Nurses and Pharmacists get ORELSE.

Physicians ordering Meds from CPRS need to have 'Authorized to write med orders' field in file 200 (NEW PERSON) set to YES. To order controlled substances, provider must have either a DEA# in file 200 or a VA # in file 200 with an Institutional DEA in the Kernel System Parameters file (8989.3).
