Overview

The OpenMRS Order Entry UI is an application to support creating of orders(Drug and Lab) through the user interface.

This module is an Open Web App that has all of its resources (HTML, CSS, JavaScript, app manifest, and so on) contained in a zip file. It consumes the OpenMRS REST API.

Data entry can be done using any modern browser that supports JavaScript. The browser which has been tested most frequently with this module is Google Chrome and hence it's the recommended browser.
