Display secondary identifiers across the app (and in particular on the clinical patients and dashboard screens)

I have looked in clinical/app.json and dashboard.json, but am not sure of the exact name of the manually entered patientidentifierattribute (“Legacy ID” in our config) we should use, or where to put it.

Hi @ouiliam, What do you mean by a Legacy ID - The patient Identifier or some other secondary identifier?

A secondary identifier, we’d like to make it our preferred identifier too, could only find documentation https://bahmni.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/BAH/pages/114227194/Patient+Context+Display+Control on where/how to enter it in the following clinical config:

apps.json:

      "personAttributes": [
      ],
      "additionalPatientIdentifiers": [
      ],
      "preferredIdentifier": "Id_Number"

dashboard.json

            "patientInformation":{
            "type":"patientInformation",
            "patientAttributes":[
       
            ],
            "addressFields":[
                "cityVillage",
                "countyDistrict",
                "stateProvince"
            ]
        },

“Legacy ID” is the name of the Patient Identifier Type we want to use:

after trying many combinations, i could get the secondary identifier to display in dashboard (MK1233) by changing app.json only (additionalPatientIdentifiers entry):

but the clinical patients screen still only shows openmrs ID :frowning:

    "patientContext": {
      "programAttributes": [

      ],
      "personAttributes": [
      ],
      "additionalPatientIdentifiers": [
        "impl.legacyId"
      ],
      "preferredIdentifier": 
  },

not sure if i also need to do this https://wiki.openmrs.org/display/docs/Registration+App+Configuration#RegistrationAppConfiguration-CollectingAdditionalPatientIdentifiersintheRegistrationApp

Hi @ouiliam, We always show primary identifier in the patient queues. You can either

  • Change bahmni.primaryIdentifierType global property pointing to secondary identifier. That will show your impl.legacyId in patient queues instead of patient identifier.
  • Show the list view instead of tiles view in clinical queue as mentioned in end-tb demo (credentials: superman/Admin123) . This will show both the identifier values. Hope this helps.

Thank you very much for your suggestions @binduak, I am using the list view option (in extension.json just add “view”:“tabular”, to relevant section https://bahmni.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/BAH/pages/32014629/Configure+Patient+Lists+Queues) but am unsure how to change the SQL query to return the secondary identifier (Legacy ID) as well as the primary one (patient_identifier.identifier) for the list columns, the demo you provided does not seem to do this? image
