Character fields

The following character field limitations have been implemented:

  • Users will not be able to continue typing if a text prompt field holds more than 60 characters. If the character limitation is reached, the field will no longer accept characters. A character counter displays below the text field, and counts down to zero when all 60 characters have been entered.
  • Free-text fields are limited to 14 characters. If the character limitation is reached, the field will no longer accept characters.
  • Users must enter an asterisk (*) for partial word searches (e.g. pemph*) when searching for a test on the Test Directory page.
  • Character limitations have been implemented on the Advanced Search of the Look Up Patient tab, Register Patient tab, and the Add Physician fields on the Settings tab.
    • First Name field = 30 characters
    • Middle Name field = 30 characters
    • Last Name field = 100 characters
    • Suffix field = 10 characters
