Activating and Deactivating System Markers in the PWS Application

Activating and Deactivating System Markers in the PWS Application

Introduction

The PWS Application comes pre-loaded with Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) to help track and improve your practice’s success. However, not all markers may be relevant to your practice. This guide explains how to activate and deactivate system markers to align your tracked KPIs with your practice's needs.


Steps to Activate or Deactivate System Markers

1. Access the Settings Page

  • Click the settings icon in the navigation bar.
  • From the dropdown menu, select "Settings."

2. Locate the "Manage Markers" Section

  • Scroll down until you find the "Manage Markers" section.

📝 Note: By default, all markers are set to OFF. You must manually enable the markers that apply to your practice.

3. Review Marker Details

Each marker displays:
Marker Name
Category
Description of its purpose

4. Activate a System Marker

  • Locate the marker you want to enable.
  • Click the OFF toggle switch (See Image 1).
  • The switch will update to say ON (See Image 2), indicating that the marker is now activated and available for use.

5. Deactivate a System Marker

  • Locate the marker you want to disable.
  • Click the ON toggle switch to turn it OFF.
  • The marker will no longer be tracked in future reports.

Important Notes

Historical Data Impact:

  • Activating or deactivating markers only affects data and reports moving forward.
  • Previously generated Data Sheets and Report Cards will remain unchanged and will not retroactively update.

By following these steps, you can ensure that your KPIs align with your practice's specific needs, improving the accuracy and relevance of your performance tracking in the PWS Application.
