= DAPS (Demographics Authentication Processing System)

DAPS (Digital Audit of Patients Submission) takes a sub-set of patient details and submits them to the UHL and Spine systems for validation and to provide the additional data.

To submit a file for processing with DAPS (Data Analysis and Partitioning with Spine), copy a CSV file with the correct columns into the folder !\\uhldwh\BRICCS_DBS_IN.

When processing is complete DAPS (Death date, Address and Phone number Supplementation) will place 3 files for each submitted CSV in the folder V:\Study specific recruitment projects\IT returned files\

== Processing

The processing occurs in 2 stages:

1. Send
2. Reeceive

'''The two following steps take place ''concurrently''.  I think this is an error, but it may only be the case in my (RaB) copy and not the live copy'''

2. Patient matching
3. Export patient details to the file to be sent to the Spine
