Setup (General)

Insert Variable Date

Use the
Insert Variable Date
 dialog to add dates to standard text items without having to update those items periodically. For example, you can add a variable year-end date to a text item, and DT Practice will insert the appropriate year automatically.
To access the
Insert Variable Date
 dialog, select the Insert Variable Date button, available in the following locations within DT Practice.
  • Setup > Standard Text
  • Setup > Activities
  • The Detail Billing screen Compose tab
  • Comment dialog (e.g., on the Receipt & Adjustment Entry screen)
  • Biller Note dialog (on the Time & Expense Entry screen)
To use this feature, position the cursor where you want the date to appear and select the Calendar button. In the
Insert Variable Date
 dialog, select a date from the list, choose a date format, and select
OK
. The variable appears between brackets, but will display properly in the field in which it appears.
