Site Specific Reserved Words
There may be occasion where you want to have one definition files you share between sites and want to include specific details e.g. e-mail, out or hours number, regular surgeon. These details may vary between site. You can now use &siteX where x is between 1 and 9. These are set via the lookup table option in parameters.
AP and Web Documents
If you set ^22=filename.html then your web browser will be called
to display the filename. By default the system will add
http://your-server-name/ to the file, you can set Web_Documents
in params.txt to alter the default location.
Note: This will call lynx on character based screens and you may find the screen 'messy', this is cosmetic and will sort it's self out on the next refresh.
AP Accept Default
The default answer when pricing work via AP can be set via an
entry in params.txt (AP_Default_Accept
), if this is set to YES
then the default will be 'Accept' otherwise it will be 'Yes'.
PDSA sites will automatically default to Accept.
