Main Screen & Navigation

Documentation Note

Several of these images are from the 4.2.0 release. We will update them as we continue to work on the user guide.

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.


Main Screen

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.


All Navigation Menu Items

Each major nav menu item is linked to a page that gives details about it and its sub items.

  • Menu items display in upper pane by default unless stated otherwise.
