Set Up Start Origin Descriptions

Use the Start Origin table to create your list of reasons patients decided to start treatment at your office. The data is collected by phase on the Findings tab of the patient folder. You can optionally use a data tool to add standard Gaidge descriptions to this list.

How to Get Here

ViewPoint main menu > System Tables > Treatment > Start Origin.

Choose Your Settings

Add a description - Click in a blank field at the bottom of the table and type your description.

Edit descriptions - Click in the field you want to modify and type your changes, or cut, copy and paste text as needed.
Delete descriptions - Select the record to work with, then press Delete on your keyboard. If the record is linked to patient folders, you can reassign them if needed, or use Clear Links to erase the response in the patient folder as well as removing it from the table.

Insert standard Gaidge responses - (Optional.) Use Data Tool 35, found on the Non-Destructive #2 tab of the data tool window, to add standard Gaidge responses to your list. Any responses you have already created will not be affected. Note, however, that using the data tool will add Gaidge responses to several tables, including Start Origin, Phase Classification, and Transaction Adjustment Classification. See "Use Data Tools" for details about running the tool.
