Edit Mobile Sheet Def

Sheets can be optimized for use with mobile devices and eClipboard.

In Edit Sheet Def, at the upper right, click Show Mobile.

If instead a button for Hide Mobile is shown, the mobile layout is already enabled.

Alternatively, in Sheet Def Properties, enable Use Mobile Layout.

This toggles a pane that shows a mobile-optimized view. Mobile layout is available for patient forms, consent forms, exam sheets, and medical histories.

Filling out Mobile Sheets

Filling out Mobile Sheets may differ from the Fill Sheet window or Web Forms: What Patient Sees when filling out on a computer web browser.

eClipboard: When filling out sheets via eClipboard, some information may be filled in on sheets if it exists in the database or the patient has filled out the form previously. Patients can update or change information as needed.

MedicalHistory Sheets: For any blank InputMed fields, there is a single Add button located where the InputMed1 value is in the mobile layout available for the patient to input medications. The number of available inputs various depending on how many have been added to the sheet. In eClipboard, if medication information already exists for the patient, they will see a list of medications. A Remove button is listed next to each existing medication associated to a CheckMed field.
