For example, a result code of 1 may indicate the first dose of a multi-dose immunzation, or it may indicate a PPD was placed but not yet read. remains ? which is the the software default result code to indicate a service was requested, but results have not yet been recorded in the software.

The most common use is to keep the status Pending until all services have been completed -- which could include receiving transcription from Medical Records, or lab results, etc. If all visits are marked Completed, this report will not produce the desired results.
