The Shortcut is a short code that can be typed to immediately add a Template to a Document.

The Description provides a brief explanation of the intended use of the Template.

The Keywords list is a list of comma and space-separated keywords associated with that Template. They can be used to provide additional searchable information about a Template. Short phrases can also be used, provided they do not include commas or other punctuation. Spaces are allowed.

This check box indicates whether the selected Template is used for a Face to Face encounter or a Non Face to Face encounter.  When the selected Template is inserted by the user, the active SOAPnote will default to a Face to Face encounter if the box is checked.  If the box is not checked, the active SOAPnote will default to a Non Face to Face encounter.
