Hi,
I've been creating the document to improve the spreadsheet import module
(I'm attaching it here in case anyone wants to look at it and give me
suggestions. If you do please make them with Track Changes in the Word doc).

One thing I came across was whether the module should create a new
encounter if it imports observations for a patient.  From what I can tell
right now the import module inserts the observations, but doesn't link them
to an encounter (I have to admit that I'm guessing a little there because I
haven't gotten it to work on OMRS 1.6). This means that you can search for
the observation and even use it in the patient summary module or others,
but there isn't an encounter where you can see (and modify) what was
imported.

I see that as being useful, but
a. wanted to check with others how useful they thought that functionality
would be
b. how complicated it would be do to that? For example, is there a way for
this to create an encounter without having a form linked to it and if now
form is required how would it display the data.
