Customizing Labels

Labels are used throughout Tops Ortho and have an internal meaning assigned to them. Many can be edited by your practice, however, the changes you make should match the internal meaning of the Label. Labels that you add do not hold any special internal purpose, thus, if you add a Label, you do not have to add a meaning.  If you edit the label, just remember that if the label has been used historically, it may update all patient records that used it historically as well.
