Depending on where a referral is accessed (from the ASSESSMENTS tab, the REFERRALS tab, or the HISTORY tab in the client record; from the REFERRAL: EDIT page or the REFERRAL: ASSIGN page; or in the search results on the Global REFERRALS tab), different referral details will be viewable and editable. The table below describes the various referral fields and indicates which of them are editable.
Note: The ability to edit referrals must be enabled in the staff member’s access role settings. For more information about access role settings, see the Access Roles series of articles.
