Associate a Program to the Observation template

Here at PIH, we are trying to configure programs in Bahmni to support HIV clinical care. While configuring programs I came across this wiki entry that describes how to associate a program to the Observation template: https://bahmni.atlassian.net/wiki/display/BAH/Programs+Module#ProgramsModule-5.AssociateaProgramtotheObservationtemplate

We just have couple questions:

  1. Can we associate more than one Observation template to a program? e.g. Intake(Baseline) form and Followup Visit form
  2. How this type of association is relevant in the Bahmni system? Is this association visible anywhere in the system? When I go to enteringe data via the program dashboard all Observation templates are visible, not only the templates that were associated withe the specific program.

Thank you for your response.

Yes, we can associate more that one template.[quote=“cioan, post:1, topic:8693”] Is this association visible anywhere in the system? [/quote]

where navigating to consultation via program enrolment page, the observation templates that are associated to that program are visible in observation tab.[quote=“cioan, post:1, topic:8693”] When I go to enteringe data via the program dashboard all Observation templates are visible, not only the templates that were associated withe the specific program [/quote]

This wouldn’t happen if you have the mapping set up properly and you navigate via program dashboard.

Hi @sravanthi17, Thank you for your response. This is helpful. Just a quick followup question. When you say: [quote=“sravanthi17, post:2, topic:8693”] This wouldn’t happen if you have the mapping set up properly and you navigate via program dashboard. [/quote]

you mean that the two observation templates I associated with the program would be displayed by default on the consultation page as it is displayed below? But, if the user clicks on the grid button at the bottom of the screen the user would still be able to see and select any observation template that wase included in the All Observation Templates set? Is there a way in Bahmni to restrict only to the program associated templates when navigating via the program dashboard?

Right now there is no way to restrict that. One will see all the templates on click of the grid.
