Configurable Standing Order Enablement by Order Type

Settings > EHR > Lab Orders > Enable Standing Order for > Select Order Types

What’s Newnew_symbol-1

  • A new configuration panel is added under EHR settings to manage Standing Order availability.

  • Standing Orders can be enabled or disabled independently for:

    • Lab orders

    • Radiology orders

    • Procedure orders

  • The configuration directly controls whether the Standing Order option appears during order entry.

  • Changes take effect based on the selected order type settings.

How It Works 

  • Navigate to Settings > EHR > Lab Orders.

  • Locate the Enable Standing Order for configuration section.

  • Select one or more order types (Lab, Radiology, Procedure) where Standing Orders should be enabled.

  • Save the settings.

  • During order entry, the system evaluates the configuration.

  • The Standing Order option is displayed only for the order types that are enabled.

  • Order types that are not enabled do not show the Standing Order option.
