Usage:          

In addition to Microsoft Word, DLCPM also has its own built-in Word Processor. The built-in Word Processor is several times faster, has all of the standard formatting features however does not allow inserting tables or images. The Word Processing module is designed as a tool for creating documents that may be used for any business purpose needed by your laboratory such as: Sales, Marketing, Customer Service, and Accounting.    

For example, you may want to create a letter that the accounting department can mail for past due balances or special offers used to market a new product. This module supports all the functions available for a full Mail Merge program. These features allow users to insert Merge fields for Standard Address, Doctor Name, etc. instead of the actual value. Later, when the document is printed, the merge fields are replaced by the data taken from the Doctor's record in the database.

Word Processing

Word Processing consists of two parts, namely:

Local Documents - Created on the local user’s computer or a shared file server folder, but they are not part of the DLCPM system and as a result are not accessible in the Folder View.

Server Documents - Once a local document is created, and tested, it must be published to the server. Once it is published to the designated folder on the server, it will be accessible by all users. Server Documents may be copied by any user to their local documents and re-published but no user is allowed to modify the server documents directly.
