Overview
The Timeline view has a tabular display of study visits/encounters and includes various display options and filters.
Content
The Timeline View contains all the fixed encounters, and the non-fixed encounters that have occurred. The encounter is color coded to show the encounter's status. The Timeline settings can be used to customize the display. Encounters that have occurred are accessed by clicking on the date. Encounters that have not occurred are accessed/entered by clicking on create.
