Enabling Orders Pending Signature

You must enable Orders Pending Signature to capture electronic signatures of orders and order reviews to be documented in the web application. 

Warning

Cannot be disabled after enabling. If disable is required, you must request PointClickCare to disable. Orders begin to accumulate for signature after enabled.  Enabling should be completed after other items of Setting Up Electronic Signatures for Orders in the Web are complete.

Note
