The user can add an addendum to a SOAP note if information needs to be added after the SOAP note has been signed off.

The Addendum the user just created will appear and the user can type to add information, which will be attached to the SOAP note in the same Document.
*Note: The user will not be able to insert SMARText items in the addendum. The addendum is used for free-text only.
