Master Paragraphs are used during billing to add standard text to a bill. These are set up to save typing the same text over and over again.
- Most practices develop their own library of master paragraphs to suit their billing requirements.
- They can be grouped into Types which can contain a number of related paragraphs. For example, you may have a group of paragraphs under a Type heading of Tax for example.
- You can also attach paragraphs to specific assignments (AE) / jobs (AO). When a bill is created for that assignment/job, all billing text can be added in one step.
Once set up, use the Master Paragraphs window to view and select the master paragraphs when you're raising a bill for a client.
To add new master paragraphs, you'll need super user /administrator access rights in the system. See your system administrator if you require access.
- In AE/AO, from the main menu, go to Maintenance > Maintenance Map > Documents > Master Paragraphs. The Master Paragraphs window appears.
- Under Paragraph Name, in the blank line at the top, type in the new Paragraph Name and press Enter. The new paragraph is created.
- Locate the new paragraph created in the list (located at the end of the list) and highlight the new paragraph. The new paragraph is highlighted.
- Under the formatting section, type your standard into the blank text area at the bottom of the screen. Master paragraph text is entered.
- Highlight the text entered and select the practice default font. For example Arial 10. The practice default font is updated.
Click OK.
If you have any text in Microsoft Word which you want to use to create master paragraphs, copy the text into Word Pad and then highlight and copy the text into Practice Manager.
- In AE/AO, from the main menu, go to Maintenance > Maintenance Map > Documents > Master Paragraphs. The Master Paragraphs window appears.
- Locate and highlight the paragraph you wish to edit. The Paragraph is selected.
Edit the text in the text area at the bottom of the screen.
Ensure that the paragraph is using the correct practice default font. To update the text font, highlight the text and select the relevant font and font size.- Click OK. The Master Paragraph is updated.
- In AE/AO, from the main menu, in the toolbar, click the Reports icon. The Reports tab opens.
- On the Tasks bar, scroll down and select MASTER PARAGRAPH.
