• Zip Code table updates - As you type a new city, state and zip code value into your patient folders, the information is automatically added to your Zip Code table for future use. You may want to review and edit these new entries regularly.

• Patient folder updates - If you change information in the Zip Code table, the changes do not automatically update patient folders and other records: You might want to subgroup records that use the old zip code information so you can update them manually as needed.
