Restricting Forms to a facility

Is there a way to restrict forms to a facility.  We have a multi-facility setup with different forms  for each facility.  It is starting to get really messy with all the forms.  Thanks for any tips!

Where are the forms?  Left nav-bar?  Encounter forms?  Either one can be re-arranged so that there are categories for each group of forms.  Encounter forms for the left navbar can also be turned off in globals.  Outside that, there are plenty of ways to do a check (probably after restricting users to a facility) by checking the session for the user’s facility before the link for the form gets displayed.  Of course, you could tinker with the ACL to do the same thing….but that is outside my limited realm of experience.

Thanks for the information!

The forms are a mix of Encounter and general forms.

Any tips on how to

check the session for the user’s facility

Thanks again for the information…now I know it can be done.
