Overview
Creating a client profile is necessary in order to perform many other actions in your workflow. Once a client is established, you can have patient's tied to the client via relationships. There are a few different ways to add a new client into the software.
Tips when adding a new client:
Address: When entering in the client's address, simply start typing the address and the system will automatically start searching for the official address. Select the correct address from the drop down that appears.
Reminders: The reminders field is where you will select the client's prefered reminder method. For example, if a vaccine has an email and SMS reminder action, and a client is opted in for only SMS reminders, they will only receive the SMS type reminder for the vaccine. In this field, you can select more than one reminder option if necessary.
Discounts: If a discount is selected in this field, the discount will automatically be applied to any invoices for this client. If a discount is added to a client's profile after the client has been created, this will only affect any new invoices moving forward.
