Editing the "Directions" Field

Many of the documents under the Tests and Admissions category have a field that prompts for directions to a particular area of your hospital (e.g., same-day surgery). If anyone is using these documents at your facility, the administrator will need to edit this Directions field.

To delete the prompt for Directions, right-click the document under "Tests and Admissions" and click "Edit." When the document opens, highlight the Directions field with your mouse, and press "Delete" on your keyboard.

If you would like to customize directions for your facility, please follow these steps:

1. From the toolbar, click "Maintenance" -> "Fields"
2. Type ‘directions’ in the Filter By box. Next, click "Select All" and then click "Start Search."
   
   





3. Select the Directions field from the Search Results window and click the "Edit/Details" button. When the screen opens, click the "List Options" tab.
   
   



4. Click the "Manage List Options" button.
   
   



5. To edit the list options already present, click on an option in the list and edit the contents on the right under the Value screen. When you have finished, click "Update List Option" to save your changes. To remove a list option, select it from the list on the left and click "Remove List Option."
   
   



6. To add a new list option:
   
   • Click "Add New."
   • Type in the Name and Value text boxes and click "Save Changes."
     
     
   
   
   • Click "OK" to the information popup.
