  • The 'Upload Contents' column provides a status of the transfer of the file from your computer to the DDS Platform.

  • Transferring or uploading your file from your computer is the first step the DDS Platform performs when processing your files.  After this step has completed, the QRDA I documents are then processed against the edits, schematron rules, and eCQM logic.  Both the edits and schematron rules can cause documents to be rejected.  Go to the Data Accuracy page to review what, if any, errors (causing a rejection) or warnings were generated for each document.  The Quality Improvement page can be used to evaluate how QRDA I documents were processed against the eCQMs.
