Overview
When installing Lytec 2011 Professional or Multi-User, you should first designate a computer as the server. For the purpose of this installation, a server is the computer where your data resides. You must know the name of the server to continue with installation and setup. A workstation is a computer that you use to run Lytec but does not house the data files. It accesses the data on the server across the network. There are four major steps for installing Lytec 2011 Professional or Multi-User on a network: Install and set up Lytec 2011 on the server Migrate the existing database to the new SQL instance Create a new practice or convert an existing practice Install and set up Lytec 2011 on each workstation

Lytec 2011 Client/Server Installation

NOTE: Do not uninstall your previous version of Lytec until you convert to Lytec 2011. Uninstalling previous versions of Lytec is not required after upgrading and in most cases not necessary or recommended. NOTE: Shut down the Communications Messenger before running the Lytec 2011 installation. NOTE: In some instances, you may have to restart the Lytec 2011 installation after the .NET framework is installed. If this occurs, the installation will close after installing .NET. Restart the installation. This situation can occur with older versions of the .NET framework on the PC. NOTE: Make a backup of your practice data in the prior release before installing Lytec 2011. Important note: If you are extracting the ISO or webinstall file to the hard drive prior to installing, you should extract to a folder that is immediately off the root drive and the folder name should be short. For example, c:\Install. Do NOT use a long folder name. This is recommended for both server and workstation installs.
If you are installing Lytec 2011 on a Windows 2008 Domain Controller

You will need to manually install SQL Server 2008 BEFORE you install Lytec. For instructions on installing SQL Server 2008 manually, see page 98 for a new install, and page 104 for an upgrade. NOTE: If you are installing any service pack of Lytec 2011, you may disregard this and install normally.

If SQL Management Studio Express is installed on your server computer, you should uninstall it prior to installing Lytec 2011. For steps to do so, see page 95. Make sure your Windows operating system has the latest service pack installed. This will be checked during installation.
Overview
For the purpose of this installation, a server is the computer where your data resides and is running either Windows Server 2003 operating system (Standard or Enterprise, SP2 and R2) or Windows Server 2008 operating system (Standard, or R2).

Overview
For the purpose of this installation, a server is the computer where your data resides and is running either Windows Server 2003 operating system (Standard or Enterprise, or SP2 and R2) or Windows Server
36
2008 operating system (Standard, or R2). You must know the name of the server to continue with the installation and setup. Make sure the following items are true: The logical drive on the application server must be a drive letter that is not reserved by any workstation (P: is the recommended drive letter). The drive letter where the application resides on the application server must be available to be mapped to each and every Lytec MD computer workstation. You should have a folder prepared on the server, on the logical drive noted above, for Practice Partner and this folder should be empty (typically this folder is called ppart). You will need a folder called License on the same server. This is where you should place your Practice Partner license file. If you do not have a License folder, the steps below on downloading your license file will walk you through the process of creating one. You must verify that the correct permissions are established for the root drive (typically P). Users should have full access rights. For instructions on setting or verifying these permissions, see page 95. Your server and workstations should meet the system requirements as specified at the beginning of this guide. Once you install Lytec MD on your server, you will need to open or add ports on any third party firewall you might use. Refer to the product documentation for instructions. The ports that need to be opened or added to an exception list are: TCP on 1433 and 1434 and UDP on 1434. A workstation is a computer that you use to run Lytec but does not store data. It accesses data on the network server. Each workstation should be mapped to the server computer.

Setting up a Connection to Lytec MD with Communications Manager

Before you set up Communications Manager, you should determine if you want to use Automatic Provider Mapping. Your provider ID mapping between Lytec and LytecMD determines if you should use this feature. Using this feature if your provider ID mappings do not meet certain conditions can jeopardize accuracy of appointments sent from Lytec to LytecMD, the provider associated with a patient, and possibly the provider assigned to charges coming in from LytecMD to Lytec. Also, before using this feature, back up your data.
Types of Provider Mappings

There are two methods for mapping providers between Lytec and LytecMD: via manual provider entry in Lytec and LytecMD and then updating the cross reference files to map the providers between the systems or via automatic provider mapping, a new feature introduced with Lytec 2011 controlled by the Automatic Provider Mapping box that manages the process. The automatic provider mapping feature replaces the need to enter providers in both systems (now entered in Lytec only) and to update the provider mappings in the cross reference files. You can take advantage of this new feature if you are: installing LytecMD for the first time (new installation). upgrading your version of LytecMD if you have a one-to-one relationship in your current provider record mapping between Lytec and LytecMD in the DemSch and Billing cross reference files.
50
A one-to-one mapping relationship means that you only have one provider ID for each provider record in your practice mapping to one provider ID in LytecMD. If your practice is set up with one-to-one provider mappings between Lytec and LytecMD, then you can use the automatic provider mapping feature. WARNING: If you have multiple provider IDs for the same provider and these are mapped to one provider ID in LytecMD, then you MUST NOT use the automatic provider mapping feature. If you turn on this feature and use it in this situation, you jeopardize accuracy of appointments sent from Lytec to LytecMD, the provider associated with a patient, and possibly the provider assigned to charges coming in from LytecMD to Lytec. For instance, if your practice has two providers, but each provider has three provider IDs, possibly for unique billing situations, use of a facility, services offered, etc., and in LytecMD you have mapped these provider IDs to one provider ID in LytecMD, you should continue using the manual provider entry method to update provider information.
Provider Mapping Examples

TIP: If you are unsure of the status of your mappings, contact LytecMD support. You can also check the DemSch cross reference file (DemSch_Pvid.ref) and Billing cross reference file (BillCode_Pvid.ref) to determine your mapping status.
One-to-One Mapping Example

To check the Dem Sch cross reference file, go to [Practice Partner directory folder]\\Interface\BillingBridge\DemSch\CrossRef and open the DemSch_Pvid.ref in NotePad or WordPad. When you open this file, you will see a series of entries, for instance in a three doctor practice: MM471 | MM4 JM875 | JM8 WW934 | WW9 The first entry for each line is the Provider ID from Lytec. The second entry for each line is the Provider ID in LytecMD. Both items when combined create a mapping from Lytec to LytecMD and this mapping is used by the applications to accurately transfer or map data between the systems. In this example, the relationship is one to one. Each of the three provider IDs in Lytec match a single provider ID in LytecMD.
Variation of a One-to-One Mapping Example

Another variation of a one-to-one mapping is the following: MM471 | MM4 MM571 | MM5 MM671 | MM6 In this example, the provider in the Lytec practice has three provider IDs (multiple provider records in Lytec); however, each of these Lytec provider IDs is mapped to a specific provider ID in LytecMD (also multiple provider records in LytecMD).
Multiple Mappings Example

If the cross reference file looked like this example below, the practice is set up using a multiple-to-one mapping: MM471 | MM4 MM571 | MM4
51
MM671 | MM4 In this example, there are three provider IDs in Lytec for a single provider and the IDs are mapped to one provider ID in LytecMD.
Check Billing Mappings Also

You must also check your mappings in the Billing cross reference file (BillCode_Pvid.ref) to determine your mapping status. Your Billing mappings must be the same as your Dem Sch but in reverse order; that is, the LytecMD provider IDs appear first, followed by the Lytec provider IDs. For instance, if you have five entries in your Dem Sch mapping, then these entries would need to be in your Billing mapping but in reverse order (LytecMD provider ID first). To check the Billing cross reference file, go to [Practice Partner directory folder]\\Interface\BillingBridge\BillCode\CrossRef and open the BillCode_Pvid.ref in NotePad or WordPad. Compare these mappings to the mappings in the Dem Sch. If you want to interface Race, Ethnicity, and Relationship to Insured (new for Lytec 2011), you will need to create new cross reference files. For Race, create DemSch-Race.ref with this configuration: C | White B | Black I | Indian/Alask A | Asian E | Other P | Pac Isle N | Non-Hispanic H | Hispanic
For Ethnicity, create DemSch-Ethnicity.ref with the following values: N | Non-Hispanic H | Hispanic For Relationship to Insured, create DemSch_InsRel.ref with a configuration something like the following: Self | S Spouse | O Child | C Other | O
Use the Automatic Provider Mapping Feature

If, after reviewing both the DemSch and Billing cross reference files, your mappings are one to one. The steps immediately below detail setting up Communications Manager with this feature.
Do Not Use the Automatic Provider Mapping

If, after reviewing both the DemSch and Billing cross reference files, your mappings show a oneto-many relationship.
52
WARNING: If you have multiple provider IDs for the same provider and these are mapped to one provider ID in LytecMD, then you MUST NOT use the automatic provider mapping feature. If you turn on this feature and use it in this situation, you jeopardize accuracy of appointments sent from Lytec to LytecMD, the provider associated with a patient, and possibly the provider assigned to charges coming in from LytecMD to Lytec.
Setting Up Communications Manager with Automatic Provider Mapping

1. Launch Lytec and open a practice. Click Admin and click Communications Manager.
The Communications Manager launches showing the practice you are logged into and your user name.
2. Click Connections to create a connection. If no connections exist, the Connections window only contains the Add button. Once connections are added, they are displayed in this space and the Add button shifts to the right side of the window.
53
3. Click Add. The window updates with the Connection Name field and Connection Type list. In the Connection Name field, enter a name of your choice for the connection, and from the Connection Type list, select Lytec MD. Click OK.
Communications Manager creates the connection. This connection uses default settings for the File transfer method. This connection method is supported by both applications. 4. Select the Edit link for the Lytec MD connection.
54
5. In the PP Server Location field, enter or select the path to the Practice Partner Server files. This is the same path that you used on the PP Client Setup page of the client installation, the Practice Partner Server location.
6. Select the Automatic Provider Mapping box if you want to use this feature. If you do NOT want to use Automatic Provider Mapping, go to step 7. To use the Automatic Provider Mapping feature to manage your provider updates, you will first send your providers. You can at this time also send any other library synchronization data (facilities, diagnosis codes, and procedure codes) to LytecMD. Then, after this information is transferred by Communications Manager, you can send your other data, such as appointments, demographics, etc. WARNING: If you initially send your providers along with appointment and demographic data, the information will not completely transfer since providers need to be in LytecMD with mappings between the systems first so data can be matched to those records. When sending Library Synchronization data (providers, facilities, diagnosis codes, and procedure codes), you cannot also send demographic and appointment data. Each of these processes needs to have separate cycles that complete before the process runs, to guarantee that data transfers. After sending Library Synchronization data, you will need to check that the data transferred, by opening LytecMD and validating that the data transferred. You will also need to verify that the LytecMD Inbound DemSch and Outbound Bill Code features are not running (not yet turned on for new sites). To do so,
55
On the desktop, click the Exit button on the Connect-DemSch In window if it is open.
On the desktop, click the Exit button on the Connect-BillCode and Sch Out window if it is open.
Go to Step 8.
7. If you do NOT want to use Automatic Provider Mapping, make sure the Automatic Provider Mapping box IS NOT selected. Make sure the Send Providers box IS NOT selected along with any other Library Synchronization boxes. For most users, select the Transmit Appointments box, Transmit Patient Demographics box, Receive LytecMD transactions box, and Send & Receive appointment status updates. Select the Force Resync on next transmission interval box to initially send your demographic and appointment data.
56
Click Done. Proceed to step 10. 8. Select the Bypass Synchronization Process box. Make sure the Force Resync on next transmission interval box, Transmit Appointments box, Transmit Patient Demographics box, Receive LytecMD transactions box, and Send & Receive appointment status updates box ARE NOT SELECTED (checked).
57
9. Select the Send Providers box. Option: Also select the Send Facilities box, Send Procedure Code box, and Send Diagnosis Codes. Sending procedure codes and diagnosis codes can take several hours depending on the file size. Consider selecting these options at the close of your business day.
58
10. Click Done. 11. Before using the newly created connection, click Register and follow the standard Lytec registration window prompts, to register the connection.
12. After registering the connection, turn on the Communications Messenger (part of the application that manages the transfer of data between Lytec and Lytec MD). Click the Configuration button and then click Enable Communications Messenger on this Machine box.
A Communications Messenger window appears. The text in the window describes the initial synchronization process. Click OK. A second window appears, indicating that the messenger is processing the synchronization and creating messages in the destination directory.
59
If you did NOT use Automatic Provider Mapping, go to step 21. 13. At this point, you will need to launch LytecMD and verify that your provider records transferred. Also, if you sent other libraries (facilities, procedure codes, or diagnosis codes), verify that this information transferred. 14. Return to Communications Manager. On the Connections window, click the Edit button on the LytecMD connection entry.
15. Select the Force Resync on the next transmission interval box. Make sure the Automatic Provider Mapping box remains selected (checked). 16. For most users, select the Transmit Appointments box, Transmit Patient Demographics box, Receive LytecMD transactions box, and Send & Receive appointment status updates box. 17. Make sure the Bypass Synchronization Process box is not selected (checked). 18. Make sure the Library Synchronization boxes (Send Providers, Send Facilities, Send Procedure Codes, and Send Diagnosis Codes) ARE NOT selected (checked). 19. Click Done.
20. The Communications Messenger window appears. The purpose of this window is to notify you that the application is about to perform an initial synchronization and send patient demographics and appointments.
60
Click OK.
The data is transferred. 21. Double-click the LytecMD DemShed (Inbound) icon on the LytecMD client pc desktop.
The Connect-DemSch In window launches. 22. Double-click the LytecMD BillCode (Outbound) icon on the LytecMD client pc desktop.
The Connect-BillCode and Sch Out launches. 23. Return to LytecMD and verify that appointments and demographics transferred to LytecMD.
TIP: Sending future library updates The appointment and demographic data transfer is a different process than the library synchronization process. The library synchronization cannot occur at the same time as appointment and demographic data transfer; if these processes run at the same time, data might not completely transfer. For new sites when you have finished installing the software and have initially sent your library synchronization records, followed by other demographic and appointment data and then have a need to send the latest updated library updates (provider, facilities, procedure codes, or diagnosis codes) from Lytec to LytecMD, verify that the LytecMD Inbound DemSch and Outbound Bill Code features are not running.
61
In Communications Manager on the LytecMD connection clear (uncheck) the Transmit Appointments box, Transmit Patient Demographics box, Receive LytecMD transactions box, and Send & Receive appointment status updates box. After the initial transmission of providers, you do not need to reselect Bypass Synchronization Process for library updates. Select the Library Synchronization choices of Send Providers, Send Facilities box, Send Procedure Codes box, or Send Diagnosis Codes box. Click Done. The library updates are sent at the next transmission interval. After sending the updates, verify that the information transferred to LytecMD. Then return to Communications Manager and on the LytecMD connection, select (check) the Transmit Appointments box, Transmit Patient Demographics box, Receive LytecMD transactions box, and Send & Receive appointment status updates box. Make sure none of the Library Synchronization boxes are selected. The demographic and appointment updates are sent at the next transmission interval. Turn on the LytecMD DemSch Inbound and Bill Code Outbound features to import this data (demographics and appointments) into LytecMD.

Setting up a Connection to Lytec MD with Communications Manager

Before you set up Communications Manager, you should determine if you want to use Automatic Provider Mapping. Your provider ID mapping between Lytec and LytecMD determines if you should use this feature. Using this feature if your provider ID mappings do not meet certain conditions can jeopardize accuracy of appointments sent from Lytec to LytecMD, the provider associated with a patient, and possibly the provider assigned to charges coming in from LytecMD to Lytec. Also, before using this feature, back up your data.
Types of Provider Mappings

There are two methods for mapping providers between Lytec and LytecMD: via manual provider entry in Lytec and LytecMD and then updating the cross reference files to map the providers between the systems or via automatic provider mapping, a new feature introduced with Lytec 2011 controlled by the Automatic Provider Mapping box that manages the process. The automatic provider mapping feature replaces the need to enter providers in both systems (now entered in Lytec only) and to update the provider mappings in the cross reference files. You can take advantage of this new feature if you are: installing LytecMD for the first time (new installation). upgrading your version of LytecMD if you have a one-to-one relationship in your current provider record mapping between Lytec and LytecMD in the DemSch and Billing cross reference files.
80
Appendix A: Automatic Provider Mapping
A one-to-one mapping relationship means that you only have one provider ID for each provider record in your practice mapping to one provider ID in LytecMD. If your practice is set up with one-to-one provider mappings between Lytec and LytecMD, then you can use the automatic provider mapping feature. WARNING: If you have multiple provider IDs for the same provider and these are mapped to one provider ID in LytecMD, then you MUST NOT use the automatic provider mapping feature. If you turn on this feature and use it in this situation, you jeopardize accuracy of appointments sent from Lytec to LytecMD, the provider associated with a patient, and possibly the provider assigned to charges coming in from LytecMD to Lytec. For instance, if your practice has two providers, but each provider has three provider IDs, possibly for unique billing situations, use of a facility, services offered, etc., and in LytecMD you have mapped these provider IDs to one provider ID in LytecMD, you should continue using the manual provider entry method to update provider information.
Provider Mapping Examples

TIP: If you are unsure of the status of your mappings, contact LytecMD support. You can also check the DemSch cross reference file (DemSch_Pvid.ref) and Billing cross reference file (BillCode_Pvid.ref) to determine your mapping status.
One-to-One Mapping Example

To check the Dem Sch cross reference file, go to [Practice Partner directory folder]\\Interface\BillingBridge\DemSch\CrossRef and open the DemSch_Pvid.ref in NotePad or WordPad. When you open this file, you will see a series of entries, for instance in a three doctor practice: MM471 | MM4 JM875 | JM8 WW934 | WW9 The first entry for each line is the Provider ID from Lytec. The second entry for each line is the Provider ID in LytecMD. Both items when combined create a mapping from Lytec to LytecMD and this mapping is used by the applications to accurately transfer or map data between the systems. In this example, the relationship is one to one. Each of the three provider IDs in Lytec match a single provider ID in LytecMD.
Variation of a One-to-One Mapping Example

Another variation of a one-to-one mapping is the following: MM471 | MM4 MM571 | MM5 MM671 | MM6 In this example, the provider in the Lytec practice has three provider IDs (multiple provider records in Lytec); however, each of these Lytec provider IDs is mapped to a specific provider ID in LytecMD (also multiple provider records in LytecMD).
Multiple Mappings Example

If the cross reference file looked like this example below, the practice is set up using a multiple-to-one mapping: MM471 | MM4 MM571 | MM4
81
MM671 | MM4 In this example, there are three provider IDs in Lytec for a single provider and the IDs are mapped to one provider ID in LytecMD.
Check Billing Mappings Also

You must also check your mappings in the Billing cross reference file (BillCode_Pvid.ref) to determine your mapping status. Your Billing mappings must be the same as your Dem Sch but in reverse order; that is, the LytecMD provider IDs appear first, followed by the Lytec provider IDs. For instance, if you have five entries in your Dem Sch mapping, then these entries would need to be in your Billing mapping but in reverse order (LytecMD provider ID first). To check the Billing cross reference file, go to [Practice Partner directory folder]\\Interface\BillingBridge\BillCode\CrossRef and open the BillCode_Pvid.ref in NotePad or WordPad. Compare these mappings to the mappings in the Dem Sch. If you want to interface Race, Ethnicity, and Relationship to Insured (new for Lytec 2011), you will need to create new cross reference files. For Race, create DemSch-Race.ref with this configuration: C | White B | Black I | Indian/Alask A | Asian E | Other P | Pac Isle N | Non-Hispanic H | Hispanic
For Ethnicity, create DemSch-Ethnicity.ref with the following values: N | Non-Hispanic H | Hispanic For Relationship to Insured, create DemSch_InsRel.ref with a configuration something like the following: Self | S Spouse | O Child | C Other | O
Use the Automatic Provider Mapping Feature

If, after reviewing both the DemSch and Billing cross reference files, your mappings are one to one. The steps immediately below detail setting up Communications Manager with this feature.
Do Not Use the Automatic Provider Mapping

If, after reviewing both the DemSch and Billing cross reference files, your mappings show a oneto-many relationship.

WARNING: If you have multiple provider IDs for the same provider and these are mapped to one provider ID in LytecMD, then you MUST NOT use the automatic provider mapping feature. If you turn on this feature and use it in this situation, you jeopardize accuracy of appointments sent from Lytec to LytecMD, the provider associated with a patient, and possibly the provider assigned to charges coming in from LytecMD to Lytec.
Setting Up Communications Manager with Automatic Provider Mapping

1. Launch Lytec and open a practice. Click Admin and click Communications Manager.
The Communications Manager launches showing the practice you are logged into and your user name.
2. Click Connections to create a connection. If no connections exist, the Connections window only contains the Add button. Once connections are added, they are displayed in this space and the Add button shifts to the right side of the window.
83
3. Click Add. The window updates with the Connection Name field and Connection Type list. In the Connection Name field, enter a name of your choice for the connection, and from the Connection Type list, select Lytec MD. Click OK.
Communications Manager creates the connection. This connection uses default settings for the File transfer method. This connection method is supported by both applications. 4. Select the Edit link for the Lytec MD connection.
84
5. In the PP Server Location field, enter or select the path to the Practice Partner Server files. This is the same path that you used on the PP Client Setup page of the client installation, the Practice Partner Server location.
6. Select the Automatic Provider Mapping box if you want to use this feature. To use the Automatic Provider Mapping feature to manage your provider updates, you will first send your providers. You can at this time also send any other library synchronization data (facilities, diagnosis codes, and procedure codes) to LytecMD. Then, after this information is transferred by Communications Manager, you can send your other data, such as appointments, demographics, etc. If you do NOT want to use Automatic Provider Mapping, go to Step 7. WARNING: If you initially send your providers along with appointment and demographic data, the information will not completely transfer since providers need to be in LytecMD with mappings between the systems first so data can be matched to those records. When sending Library Synchronization data (providers, facilities, diagnosis codes, and procedure codes), you cannot also send demographic and appointment data. Each of these processes needs to have separate cycles that complete before the process runs, to guarantee that data transfers. After sending Library Synchronization data, you will need to check that the data transferred, by opening LytecMD and validating that the data transferred. You will also need to verify that the LytecMD Inbound DemSch and Outbound Bill Code features are not running (not yet turned on for new sites). To do so,
85
Also check to see if the icons for these processes appear in the system tray at the bottom right of the window. If so, right-click and select Exit for each of them. Go to Step 8.
7. If you do NOT want to use Automatic Provider Mapping, make sure the Automatic Provider Mapping box IS NOT selected. Make sure the Send Providers box IS NOT selected along with any other Library Synchronization boxes. For most users, select the Transmit Appointments box, Transmit Patient Demographics box, Receive LytecMD transactions box, and Send & Receive appointment status updates. Select the Force Resync on next transmission interval box to initially send your demographic and appointment data.
86
Click Done. Proceed to step 10. 8. Select the Bypass Synchronization Process box. Make sure the Force Resync on next transmission interval box, Transmit Appointments box, Transmit Patient Demographics box, Receive LytecMD transactions box, and Send & Receive appointment status updates box ARE NOT SELECTED (checked).
87
9. Select the Send Providers box. Option: Also select the Send Facilities box, Send Procedure Code box, and Send Diagnosis Codes. Sending procedure codes and diagnosis codes can take several hours depending on the file size. Consider selecting these options at the close of your business day.
88
10. Click Done. 11. Before using the newly created connection, click Register and follow the standard Lytec registration window prompts, to register the connection.
12. After registering the connection, turn on the Communications Messenger (part of the application that manages the transfer of data between Lytec and Lytec MD). Click the Configuration button and then click Enable Communications Messenger on this Machine box.
A Communications Messenger window appears. The text in the window describes the initial synchronization process. Click OK. A second window appears, indicating that the messenger is processing the synchronization and creating messages in the destination directory.
89
If you did NOT use Automatic Provider Mapping, go to Step 21. 13. At this point, you will need to launch LytecMD and verify that your provider records transferred. Also, if you sent other libraries (facilities, procedure codes, or diagnosis codes), verify that this information transferred. 14. Return to Communications Manager. On the Connections window, click the Edit button on the LytecMD connection entry.
15. Select the Force Resync on the next transmission interval box. Make sure the Automatic Provider Mapping box remains selected (checked). 16. For most users, select the Transmit Appointments box, Transmit Patient Demographics box, Receive LytecMD transactions box, and Send & Receive appointment status updates box. 17. Make sure the Bypass Synchronization Process box is not selected (unchecked). 18. Make sure the Library Synchronization boxes (Send Providers, Send Facilities, Send Procedure Codes, and Send Diagnosis Codes) ARE NOT selected (unchecked). 19. Click Done.
20. The Communications Messenger window appears. The purpose of this window is to notify you that the application is about to perform an initial synchronization and send patient demographics and appointments.
90
NOTE: this window may appear BEHIND other open windows on your desktop. Minimize other windows until you see this window. Click OK.
The data is transferred. 21. Double-click the LytecMD DemShed (Inbound) icon on the LytecMD client pc desktop.
The Connect-DemSch In window launches. 22. Double-click the LytecMD BillCode (Outbound) icon on the LytecMD client pc desktop.
The Connect-BillCode and Sch Out launches. 23. Return to LytecMD and verify that appointments and demographics transferred to LytecMD.
TIP: Sending future library updates The appointment and demographic data transfer is a different process than the library synchronization process. The library synchronization cannot occur at the same time as appointment and demographic data transfer; if these processes run at the same time, data might not completely transfer. For new sites when you have finished installing the software and have initially sent your library synchronization records, followed by other demographic and appointment data
91
and then have a need to send the latest updated library updates (provider, facilities, procedure codes, or diagnosis codes) from Lytec to LytecMD, verify that the LytecMD Inbound DemSch and Outbound Bill Code features are not running. In Communications Manager on the LytecMD connection clear (uncheck) the Transmit Appointments box, Transmit Patient Demographics box, Receive LytecMD transactions box, and Send & Receive appointment status updates box. After the initial transmission of providers, you do not need to reselect Bypass Synchronization Process for library updates. Select the Library Synchronization choices of Send Providers, Send Facilities box, Send Procedure Codes box, or Send Diagnosis Codes box. Click Done. The library updates are sent at the next transmission interval. After sending the updates, verify that the information transferred to LytecMD. Then return to Communications Manager and on the LytecMD connection, select (check) the Transmit Appointments box, Transmit Patient Demographics box, Receive LytecMD transactions box, and Send & Receive appointment status updates box. Make sure none of the Library Synchronization boxes are selected. The demographic and appointment updates are sent at the next transmission interval. Turn on the LytecMD DemSch Inbound and Bill Code Outbound features to import this data (demographics and appointments) into LytecMD.
Watchdog
A program called Watchdog is available. This program will monitor applications and services used with Lytec MD and can notify you if there are failures in these applications and services. In addition, you can use Watchdog to shut down and restart applications and services periodically to ensure they are running or when you are running an automatic backup. It can also be set up to notify you via email if there are failures in any applications and services. To download and install Watchdog, navigate to http //Lytec.com/Watchdog/ and follow the instructions.
Specifying the Default SQL Server Credentials

After you have installed Lytec 2011, you will need to specify the default SQL credentials. Lytec 2011 no longer installs or controls the SQL instance. Instead, it uses an existing one by being given the credentials to the instance. 1. Start Lytec 2011. The Specify Default SQL Credentials window appears.
92
2. Select the server and instance name that was specified in the SQL Server Setup step during installation. The default Username is sa. 3. Click OK. 4. If you are a new Lytec user, go to the New Practice section of the instructions on page 93. If you are converting data from Lytec 2010, 2009, 2008, 2007, or 2006 to Lytec 2011, go to the section called Conversion from Lytec 2010, 2009, 2008, 2007 and 2006 on page 93.
New Practice
1. From the Lytec button, select New Practice. The New Practice window opens. 2. Enter the following information in the window: Practice NameEnter a name for the practice. SYSTEM PasswordEnter a password for the SYSTEM user. This password should be at least seven characters long and contain both alpha and numeric characters (for instance, SYSTEM1). Confirm PasswordReenter the SYSTEM password. 3. Click OK to create the practice. The Log In window opens. 4. Enter SYSTEM as the user code and the SYSTEM Password created in Step 2. Click OK to open the new practice.
Converting Data from Lytec 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009, and 2010
Migrating Existing Databases
Lytec 2011 has an updated use of SQL in which it no longer controls the SQL instance on the computer, allowing other programs to use the instance as well. Lytec now simply is given the SQL instance credentials and uses them. Because of this, it is necessary to migrate Lytec databases to the new instance as part of the process of installation and conversion. Once you have Lytec 2011 and later installed, you will be prompted to migrate your databases when you first start Lytec. The program will look for the old LYTEC_SQL instance. If it finds this instance, it will trigger the Database Migration wizard. In addition, there is also an option on the main application menu that you can use to manually start the wizard.
93
When you click this option, Lytec will check for a LEGACY_SQL instance and check if any legacy practices exist. If so, the Database Migration wizard will start. Use the Migrate Legacy Databases window to select the databases that you want to migrate to the new SQL instance.
Once you have made your selections, click Migrate. A progress bar will show you the progress of the migration. When the process is complete, click OK. NOTE: You should run this utility only on the server computer. When the databases have been migrated, you can continue with the conversion of your practices.
94
Converting Practices
NOTE: this procedure applies to users converting data from 2010. 2009, 2008, 2007, or 2006 to 2011 on same operating system; that is, you are installing on the same operating system (either Windows XP or Vista) as the previous version. 1. After you have migrated your databases to the new SQL instance, click the Lytec button and select Open Practice. The Practice List window opens. 2. Click Browse. 3. Select the practice you want to convert and click Open Practice. The Converting Data Files window appears. 4. Click Yes. The Log In window appears. 5. On the User Code and Password fields, enter the information for the practice and click OK. The Conversion Backup window appears. 6. Click OK. The Backup Type window appears. 7. Select the Backup Database button and click Next. 8. Click the Backup File button to navigate to a location for storing the backup. Use the Folders drop down list to further select a location and enter a file name in the Selected File field. Click OK. Click Next. 9. Click Next on the Backup Options window. 10. Click Next on the Backup Media window. 11. Click Finish on the Backup SQL Preview window. The backup utility runs and the Database Interface window appears. 12. Click OK. Conversion continues. 13. When the conversion is complete, the Error Log window appears. Click OK. 14. The Log In window appears. Enter the user code and password from the practice and click OK. The converted practice opens.
