About entrée Versions

With the release of entrée version 4 SQL in 2014 and the major differences between the menus and screens in both entrée versions 3 and 4 we have included instructions for using both versions of entrée in this guide.

 

To differentiate topics for each major version of entrée you will see color coded entrée V3 or entrée V4 SQL headers in the impacted topics to direct you to the correct information for your system. You will see this designation throughout this guide.

 

This guide will provide you with a detailed overview of the entrée.AP add-on module for the entrée system you are running.

Note - Y Although it is possible to print from within the help system of the program, due to the poor formatting results this is not recommended. NECS suggests printing from within Adobe Reader for optimal results.

 

The Electronic Order Pad (EOP) System Guide is distributed in electronic format and is installed by default along with the application.

 

Users may view the entire contents of the manual from within the program by using the F1 key to access the help system.
