I just started using the transactions modules, and find it very useful. I am interested in modifying transactions to set defaults. For example, we are a primary care office, all our referrals are external, so I would like to set :

“External Referral” to yes

Requested Service to CPT4:99499

Refer by: to the physician for that encounter

and vitals to yes.

Also the code search pop up to default to cpt4 every time it opens.

I tried to look at the code, but could not figure it out. I would appreciate being pointed in the right direction.

thank you!
