Task Templates

Many tasks have certain things in common, for example, Make an urgent appointment always has a patient attached, always has an Urgent priority, and may always be assigned to the same staff group. Task Templates are therefore available for selection when creating a task to speed up the entry of more common tasks. There are two types of Task Template:

• Practice Templates - These can be created, edited and deleted by anybody.
• INPS Templates - These are created by the system, certain aspects are available for editing depending on the template, see Vision 3 Templates for details.
