Using AVImark's note glossary feature

By Barbara Betsch

In AVImark veterinary software, the note glossary feature allows you to create and store note templates. These templates help streamline the process of producing consistent notes throughout several of AVImark's "tools."

The glossary categories and entries can be added in the Work with Menu, under the Glossary option. The glossary entries are easily accessible in most note fields within the AVImark program by using F7, or choosing Glossary from the top of the note window then selecting "View Glossary". Select the appropriate notes then choose the "Done" button.

Another option to enter notes from the glossary is to use a "hot key" function. From the note window, type in the Code of the glossary note entry, and then use the SHIFT and SPACEBAR keys; this will pull the text from the glossary.

These templates are also handy tools for duplicating text from one area of the program- such as Work with, Hospital Setup, or Reminders- to another area, such as the Information Search or the E-Mail Message Text option found in the Advances Tab of The Hospital Setup.

The glossary templates are easily accessed in many notes areas of AVImark, including the Follow-Up List, Client and Patient Instructions, Item Notes, Q & A Notes, and Medical History Doctor's Instructions.
