Office Startup screens
There are seven main screens to the Office Startup module. We also called this module "Preferences". Each screen can be navigated to by clicking its respective tab on the top of the screen.

Menu
After “logging on” to a workstation that already has PracticeMaker® running, this the first screen you get. This can also be navigated to be selecting Preferences from the "navigation list" located at the upper right-hand corner of most screens and clicking its associated "Go" button (To learn mode about navigation click here).



 
Note the Log-Off button on the upper right section of the screen. When you want to sign-off the computer, but not quit the whole program, just click this button (or any similar button on several other screens). This locks the software on this computer until someone logs back in. Changing the user does NOT change the security level used to initially open the software on this computer!

To change the "database" security level of PracticeMaker®, the program must be quit and then restarted! If you need to do this from a workstation, hold down the Option key (Shift key on Windows) a moment after double-clicking on PracticeMaker Client and enter your highest level FileMaker Pro password at the password dialog. Then log-in as usual with your PracticeMaker® password.


 
Quitting PracticeMaker®

  1. From the Main Menu of Patients, Billing, or Preferences click Quit.
  2. Navigate to Preferences and click the Quit button.
  3. Click into the "Navigation List", delete what is there and manually type in quit and click "Go".
