The following features are built into the software, helping maintain client security and confidentiality.
For more information on these features, as well as more security features, see Knowledge Base Article R11717, “Security Resources.”

When entering fees in PracticeMaster, an automatic WorkFlow can be configured with a filter to only trigger when fee descriptions exceed 300 characters for a specific range of matters or clients.
To create a WorkFlow that prompts the user when a fee description is too long
You now have a WorkFlow that is automatically triggered when the length of a fee description exceeds a set number of characters for a particular Client ID range. A prompt is displayed letting the user know that the description is too long for that client and reopens the record for editing.
Note: WorkFlows are a PracticeMaster-only feature. Fees entered or edited in Tabs3 will not trigger the WorkFlow.
For more information on WorkFlows, refer to our PracticeMaster WorkFlows Guide at Tabs3.com/support/docs.html or Knowledge Base Article R11307, “All About WorkFlows.”
Do you have Access Profiles set up? Access Profiles help with security by controlling what functions each user can access in the software.

Once you know the basics of setting up one Access Profile, you can set up the profiles you need for your firm.
