HOW TO SETUP USER DEFINED FIELDS

TPS 2000 gives you the ability to add your own fields. If there are special, dates, hobbies, or memo type items that you would like to see in TPS 2000, you may name them here. You have a minimum of 2 full screens that may be customized for your use.

In both the Patient and Patient Claims Screen, you will have a tab marked User Def. On this screen you will see 4 date fields, 5 single line entry fields and 2 memo fields. For example, one of the date entries might be labeled "Patient's Anniversary". One of the single line entries might be labeled "Number of Children".

Once these fields are renamed in this Registry form, the names you have chosen will be seen on each patient's claim screen.

You may access the User Defined entries list by clicking on the above icon. Or from the Open File Folder, select Basic Business Information. This will open the System Registry. From here use the pull down arrow and find User Defined (either Patient or Claims).

Description

Code

When in this entry DO NOT CHANGE THE CODE FIELD! Either click on or tab to the Name/Description field and replace the User10, for example, with the name you wish this field to represent.

When setting up these screens, try to group your headings appropriately. Items such as E-Mail address or Cell Phone should go in the Patient User Defined screens as these will not change, even if the patient has more than one claim.
