The Work Area:

The Batch Log lists e-Claim batches, adding them to the table as they are prepared. Information is updated as batches are uploaded and downloaded from Medicare and after they are reconciled. The Batch Log also stores a copy of each batch file, so in the event of a problem with a batch file the Batch Log can be used to recreate a batch. This view of the Batch Log table is read-only, meaning that users cannot manually modify any of the data. If it is essential to add, edit or delete records in the Batch Log those actions can be performed by the SYSDBA user in the Browse window, accessing the ECLAIMS_LOG table
