Terms
In the Terms section of the Administrative functions, you can configure:
- The terms used in various screens throughout Care Partner to suit your local terminology and preferences.
- The lists of values for each of the system drop-downs that are found throughout Care Partner
The first section that can be configured is Configurable Terms - these are shown below. When any of these terms are changed, you must ensure you click Update Configurable Terms at the bottom of the screen to save your changes.
The remaining sections within the Terms area each represent a drop-down that can be found within the various Care Partner screens.
