Atlas has pre-programmed the Transaction screen with a few system options. If you look closely at the dropdown menu for ‘Services’ you will notice an entry for the following items:

• Write Off : allows you to post a write-off for a balance owing on a patient account
• Discount: allows you to post a discount (in dollars) against services or inventory being charged on the transaction (as in a coupon)
• Credit: allows you to put a credit onto a patient account or Transaction

These System Transactions cannot be changed – however, you can add specific Credits or Discounts into the system. Review Credits in the next section.
