Main Screen & Navigation

Change Password

** If you are using the online demo do NOT change the admin password you used to log in **
However, if you are logging into your own OpenEMR installation for the first time it is good security practice to change your password to one that is more secure.
Select a word that is at least six (6) characters long and includes at least one of each:

  • upper AND lower case letters
  • numbers AND special characters

When you change your password and click the 'Save' button you will need to log out and back in again.

Clear active patient - when you have been working on a patient's account this closes it and returns to initial login screen
Hide/ Show Menu - makes left navigation ("nav") bar hidden or visible
Dropdown list - The pages that display OpenEMR functions appear in either of the top or bottom windows of the screen; each has its default position. This dropdown list allows you to assign which window a page appears in when it is selected, as long as both the Top and Bottom checkboxes are checked.


Navigation Menu

The nav bar menu itself is available in three different layout styles. See nav bar menu item Administration, the Globals submenu for details. Many other customizations of OpenEMR may be made in Administration -> Globals as well.

All Nav Bar items, shown here in "slider" layout style. Other layout styles have these same items in different layout.
  • Click on each colored bar to open that page or show a sub- menu item
  • Greyed items may not be accessed for some reason, usually because a patient or encounter has not been selected or begun.
