Run Production Report in Open Dental
We do NOT recommend running reports using “Procedure Date”. If you would like to run an Open Dental report that is accurate and reflects the same numbers you see in Analytics, follow the instructions below.
In the main menu of Open Dental, click on Reports, then click Standard
In the Production and Income section of Reports, click on More Options
In the Date Range, change the time period to match a time period in your Analytics dashboard (ie, a week or month)
Select the checkbox to run the report for All Providers
Select to show insurance writeoffs using the insurance payment date
In the lower right corner, select the checkbox to Include Unearned
Click OK
Next, look at the Dental Intelligence Performance Board for the same time period to see completed (1) Production and (2) Adjustments. The Collections Board will show (3) Collections for that same period. Please note that our Net Production (which Open Dental calls Total Production) does not include the remainder of your Scheduled production, while Open Dental's does.
