An overview of the electronic plan check workflow. The workflow starts from the TPS and ends with the treatment. $\text{Rectangles}=\text{processes or software}$, $\text{diamonds}=\text{decisions}$, $\text{trapezoids}=\text{manual input}$, $\text{rectangles with curved bottom}=\text{files}$. The boxes are color coded by function: $\text{green}=\text{dosimetrists}$, $\text{blue}=\text{physicists}$, $\text{yellow}=\text{therapists}$. The abbreviations are as follows: $\text{TPS}=\text{treatment planning system}\left(\text{Pinnacle}\right)$, $\text{LEX}=\text{in‐house plan transfer software}$, $\text{RTP‐C}=\text{RTP‐Connect file}$, $\text{R\&V}=\text{Record and Verify}\left(\text{LANTIS}\right)$, $\text{Rx}=\text{prescription}$, $\text{IE}=\text{initial export}$, $\text{Filter}=\text{RTP‐Filter}\left(\text{an in‐house application for plan checking}\right)$, $\text{LC}=\text{logically consistent}$, $\text{PM}=\text{Plan matches R\&V}$, $\text{PQ}=\text{Plan quality is acceptable}$, $\text{SC}=\text{patient setup consistent with the plan}$, $\text{FE}=\text{final export}$.
