How to get there

Use the Patient Search box to access a patient's record.
Notes:

- You can include inactive patients in the search results by setting the Include inactive patients switch to On.
On the Patient menu, under Clinical, click (or tap) Progress Notes.
The patient's clinical record opens with the Progress Notes tab selected.

Do one of the following:
- On the Progress Notes tab of a patient's clinical record, the procedure history for the patient appears. Select a clinical note.
- On the Chart, Progress Notes, Quick Exam, Perio, or Tx Planner tab of a patient's clinical record, on the Clinical Notes button menu, select a clinical note.
The Clinical Note dialogue box appears.
