Backlog list question - Anon
Posted: Jan 05, 2010
Has anyone in the "new" North region been able to access the backlog list? If so, what did you do? I can't open it.

According to my CCM, we won't be able to access this until tech is through working on it sometime next week. Hope this helps. Just ask your CCM for backlog numbers on your accts. My CCM gives me mine.
Admittedly paranoid - shipwrecked

I've asked my CCM about this 3 times, and she answers my other questions, but avoids that one. I also talked with 3 different support guys, and they say the system is working, and if I can't access it, maybe the CCM has changed our status.
I was able to access backlog this afternoon - Dinosaur

My CCM could not access it as of this morning. I was able to access it as of this afternoon. Put in your ADT number (if it is less than 6 digits you have to add a zero before your number)and add dep at the end of the number, enter password and enter company code. You have to actually click on the log in button below, pressing enter will not do it. If this is does not work for you, you may not be up and running yet. I still cannot get feedback however.
CCM responded - shipwrecked

CCM aaid tech support is "working on it." Tech support said they knew nothing about it. They also checked to see how many times I logged in. They can tell Everything we do!
Still not working for me. When I log in, I'm supposed to use only my 4-digit ADT number + dep, no zeros. I tried it your way and got those 2 weird jobs that have been there forever.
Okay. I got in, but there is only 1 account listed there that I have - cold and tired

never heard of before. Now before the company name was different than the one we had for line counts and CP, and the new one wont work with my ADP+dep and my old password used for the backlog.

I just got in too. I put in my ADP numer with leading zeros, then my OLD password that I used to use to see the backlog before the merger, and then the new company code we were given. Hit the login button, and it worked.
Is there is quick way to add commas between items in a list?
Of course, using Ctl K in front a word will change the punctuation, but it will also change a capitalized drug to lower case, and you will still have to get to the beginning of the next drug which will require 2 Ctl arrows and backspace.
Ctl arrow takes you to the beginning of the next word, but you will have to backspace to put in the comma.
Adding punctuation to lists is so time consuming! ...
Has anybody else gotten NJAs but backlog shows a lot of jobs? This has been happening quite often lately to me. I'm tier III, so this difference isn't from jobs out of my tier level. I'm really beginning to have doubts about the accuracy of the backlog. ...
We've been having late work for 4 days out of every week for awhile now with our TSM calling for OT constantly. The funny thing is, all the accounts that I'm familiar with that are late are ones that do not send overseas (as an MME, I know because I QA the ILPs).
Do you think that these hospitals refuse to send overseas and that MModal is going to say that the work was late because of lack of qualified US MTs, and that they should consider sending offshore? ...
Isn't it "strange" how it goes from NJA to "critical backlog" in nothing flat? SA5 here...
Must be the weekend.
Here's a laugh for you though: ASR report (of course) - social history: "he lives with his wife who is alive"... Good thing huh! LOL! ...
Was the company # changed for looking up the backlog when the north area combined? I haven't been able to access it since. If so, does anybody have the new # to input? CCM still hasn't gotten back to me yet and I want to check the backlog. ...
Sometimes it tells me NJA, then cesspool, then primaries. When I look at the backlog, there seems to be my work in my primaries, late work even, so why am I getting NJA and why am I getting jobs from accounts I never work on? ...
I tried that 112350 number and then I tried that 57539 number. It was 57545. Not working. So, I am not able to get into the log and find out what reports we have anymore? ...
Can anybody tell me how the backlog looks now? I got locked out and need reset, however, CCM is on vacation and haven't been able to get in contact with the fill-in CCM to fix it. Thanks ...
where it lists "totals" at the bottom for each facility, does anyone know how often that updates? I cannot be totals for a day or a shift. Does anyone know if it is totals for an hour? ...
When I check it, I see some institutions with multiple jobs days past due, not being assigned.
Do you suppose these are places that have failed to pay MM's bill or been fired by MM?
Does anyone have any idea about this? West region. ...
Can anyone explain what good backlog reports are or what purpose they serve. Its not like we can pick the hospitals that have the most reports, or we can work overtime to clear out the accounts, or we can jump on the system to clear something out if it is not our appointed work schedule. What good are they? New TSM is constantly sending these meaningless reports out, that I can't understand because of all the abbreviations, and they are just taking time away from my typing ...
I don't know if a lot of MTs' 2-week notices are up this week or doctors are getting all their work in because of JCAHO inspections or a combination of both, but in looking at the full backlog (yes, I have access that I requested as an MME years ago), there are nearly 50,000 jobs in the system when typically it's around 16K to 20K. No wonder they're freaking out. ...
So I check MQ Central as usual before starting my shift this morning. Found 4 messages stating critical backlog with weekend incentive. I sign on. No jobs. I'm tier 3. Never saw NO JOBS first thing on my regular Sunday shifts. WHAT THE ____? I read on to get a slap on the wrist from my RTL. Why didn't I send a report to QA that had multiple blanks. I tried to be objective, but it was for the usual reasons I send multiple-blank repor ...
Don't know what's going on, but I have had an abundance of my primary yesterday and today. Usually only very few reports and then being jumped around to different accounts during the day, with frequent periods of NJA. Now all the sudden we get an E-mail because we have a "critical backlog." Is India on strike or something? Actually, my account supposedly has a clause in that says they will not allow work to go to India. I don't get it. I'm ...
It would be very helpful if you would state whether or not OT is approved. Never sure if you're referring to part-timers & people who need to make up hours versus allowing us to hop on for OT. ...
