This tab is used to enter the Narrative, which allows freeform text as well as the Narrative

Template functionality. This is the story of the call and is important for billing purposes.  This tab has an auto save feature which completes an auto save every five minutes to help ensure that lengthy narratives are not lost if went unsaved.

The Narrative is meant to be the place where data (or an explanation) that cannot be provided with ePCR Module fields or requires additional explanation is entered.

Note: If in doubt about entering field data, explain it in the Narrative.

The Narrative can be posted to the Billing Module and from the Dispatch Module based on Configuration Switches in the setup.

Multiple Narratives can be loaded and printed.

To print the Narrative, click the Print Button for browser-related print functionality for the Narrative data.
