Track Anything Form

From OpenEMR Project Wiki

Anticipating

The Layout Based Visit Form with the G option will plot data points but only 1 point per encounter day. To graph multiple values in the same day and to have more than one graph per encounter, the user must deploy this form. It is particularly useful for plotting values with diurnal variations. Track Anything has other refinements which will be evident further in this article.

When the form was first created, it utilized the Procedures Module. Subsequently it has been decoupled from Procedures as explained in this post. The reasons for doing so were also given in the same thread.

Tracks items can now be configured directly from the form itself. Procedures configuration is unnecessary.

This form first made its debut in version 4.2.0.

Adding

Although 4.2.0 comes preloaded with Track Anything, a series of steps must be undertaken to bring it into service.

The first segment of the video refers to Procedures configuration. Skip that obsolete portion by fast-forwarding to frame 1:50 to start the tutorial.
