10. Part 1: Classes and Objects 10 Classes – 25 logical groupings of specific data elements or “ Objects ” Only certain Classes of information may be combined Queries are constructed by selecting Objects from valid Class combinations 1

11. Primary & Compatible Classes 11 Y indicates primary Class of data (always select from this Class first) X indicates compatible Classes (Only combine compatible Classes of data) EAS IV Repository Quick Reference Guide Classes Principal ClassContext12345678910111213141516171819202122232425 02Load StatusXY 06Expense DetailX XXXY X 07Personnel DetailX XXX Y X 09Expense AllocatedX XXX XY X 10Personnel AllocatedX XXX X YX 11Account Subset Definition XX Y 12Service Unit Cost DetailX XX XY 13Patient AcuityX XX X Y 14DRG Cost FCCX XX X Y 15Data SetsX XX X Y 16Expense PureX X Y 17Ambulatory CPT WorkloadX XX X Y 18Ancillary CPT WorkloadX XX X Y 19Respiratory Therapy/ Pulmonary FunctionX XX X Y 20FCC Expense SummaryX XX X Y 21FCC SummaryX XX X Y 22Facility SummaryX X Y 23Transmission JobX X Y 25Ambulatory Summary (No CPT) Y Context are associated with each Class that can be used as the principle Class in a multi-Class query. The Y in the chart indicates the principle Class. When constructing a query, objects from the principle Class must be chosen before other objects from a different Class are chosen. The X in the chart is for a Class which can be used with the principle Class. Some Classes cannot be the principle Classes in a query, such as Class 1. The objects in Class 24 can only be used in a single Class query.

12. Part 2: Select Result Objects 12 Click and drag, or double-click 2 Remember: If combining Classes, use Matrix and select Objects from Primary Class first
