Queueing, Especially Patient Queues

Abstract

This project seeks to build on existing work to design and incorporate a queueing facility for OpenMRS, with particular emphasis on Patient Queues. See TRUNK-3662 The queues would be priority queues, accessible through the API and forms. There would be a queue display portlet that could be included on any webpage. There would be a queue management page for defining and manipulating queues. Queues would keep statistics on the passage of objects through them, which would be summarized and saved for analysis.
