documentation; seen as tabs within the activity; used to group similar categories of
documentation together.
FLT master file - ANSEach flowsheet template is a record in which master file?
FLO master file - ANSGroups & Rows are records in which master file?
Group (Flowsheet Group) - ANSUsed to organize individual documentation flowsheet rows;
appears as a darker row color/bold font in the flowsheet activity.
Row (Flowsheet Row) - ANSWhere data is documented; designed to hold specific data;
appears as a lighter row color in the flowsheet activity.
Doc Flowsheet Builder - ANSThe administrators home menu when building flowsheets.
Row type - ANSDefines the purpose of a record.

Start Removed (mark them as start removed). - ANSHow do you have groups added on a
template that should not appear by default/added by clinicians as needed?
Topics - ANSOrganizes similar groups together in the table of contents so clinicians can easily
navigate to that part of the flowsheet template.
From the bottom up, but with a slight variation:
-at a high level, to build most flowsheet rows:
1. Create a placeholder flowsheet group record
2. Build all the rows to appear on the flowsheet (build row records & set the group as
"preferred")
3. Attach the rows to groups created in Step 1
4. Build the flowsheet template & attach groups to it - ANSIn what order should you build a
flowsheet?
In Hyperspace (in Flowsheets FLT & FLO) - ANSWhere are all flowsheet records built, edited, &
accessed?
Preface all group record names with "G" and preface all row record names with "R." - ANSHow
should you distinguish between groups and rows in the FLO record?
