Add new Form Template

1.  Press the New  button to manually add new entry

2.  You can choose a predefined layout as bellow:

    For starters we recommend using the Single Column layout, which has all the fields in one column and it's easier to work with

   

3. Next you should enter the name for the new form and it's properties:

   

 

   1. Template Name - the name which will be displayed in the medical records

   2. Category - the category of the template, which will drive where the template will be used.

       For example Lab Results templates will be the only available for laboratory staff, and Vitals templates for nurses

   3. Only Unique Value Fields

       When this is checked, it means that all the valued edited with this template are unique values in time, and don't change from one data entry to another

       These are useful to define history fields ( e.g. Hepatitis ) or custom patient fields ( e.g. Nationality )

       When not checked, fields related to a moment in time and which can change from one encounter to another can be used ( e.g. Pulse )


4. Next the Form Template Designer will open and you can design the layout of your template.

   How to fill out a template you can learn at Form Template Designer
