	What is the difference between Consultation and History Fields?

Article There are 2 distinct types of fields within myPractice - Consultation fields and History fields. Consultation fields are fields which are tied to each appointment date, as a new appointment is generated a "fresh" set of Consultation fields are generated which allow you to enter in notes against this appointment date. To view the notes from your last appointment hover your mouse over the "i" which appears next to the consultation field.

To see notes from appointments previous to the last you must select this appointment date from the drop down list of appointments within the consultation area.

History fields are static fields that don't change with each appointment.

Within the customisation screen, History fields are prefixed by the letter "H" eg: HText1, HNumeric1
Within the customisation screen, Consultation fields are prefixed by the letter "C" eg: CText1, CNumeric1

Consultation and History fields can only be edited by Practitioners.
