Step 1 of the conversion will convert all your room-beds, movement types, and all inpatient activity for your current inpatients.  Your system will then become available to users.  Once the system is available, step 2 will

start.  This step will convert all inpatient activity for patients who have been inpatients since the date you chose to initialize your G&L.  Your recalculation will then start.  At the conclusion, all remaining inpatient

activity will be moved.

The later you choose to initialize the G&L, the sooner the G&L and other statistical reports will be available.  Please consider this carefully.
