How to Create a New Summary View

The Summary section in the client card allows you to highlight the most vital client information for your practice. It's log-in-specific and easily adjustable. This article guides you through the process of creating different Summary views.

Step 1: Navigate to the Client Card


Open any client card by using the search bar at the top of the screen.


Locate the Summary tab and click on the button positioned on the right side of the tab.

Click on "Add new view" to initiate the process.

Step 2: Choose and Arrange Widgets

On the left side of the screen, you'll find a selection of widgets to build your view. Click on the widgets you want to add, and use the three-line icon on the far left of each widget to drag and drop them, arranging their order.


As you make changes, your view will be displayed on the right side of the screen.


The Alerts & Allergies widget serves to display staff-recorded alerts via the Alerts modal within the client card. Additionally, it showcases any recorded allergies documented within the Chart/EMR tab of the client card.

The Next Appointment widget presents the client's upcoming appointment nearest to the current moment.

The Medical History, Social History, and Family History widgets extract data from corresponding SNOMED fields completed within medical forms.

The Problem Heading widget retrieves information entered into the Client Problems tab within the client card.

The Medications history widget retrieves and showcases data concerning medications documented within medical forms categorized as Prescriptions. Conversely, the Products widget displays all products sold to the client via the Point of Sale.

Step 3: Name and Save Your View


Once you've customized the view, name it in the upper left corner of the screen. Click on "Save" in the upper right corner to confirm and save your newly created view.

  • To switch between different views, click on the button on the right side of the Summary tab.

  • Hovering over a view will reveal the "Set as default view" button. Mark your preferred view to always default to that one.

By following these steps, you can efficiently create customized Summary views tailored to your specific needs.
