Overview

This module consists of administration tools for the OpenMRS Reference Application (see resources). The Reference Application is an implementation of OpenMRS used to add new functionality as small apps in a similar fashion to mobile applications. The Reference Application comes with a number of apps out of the box. Currently, this application provides apps, which enable you to:

  • register patients

  • start and end visits

  • list patients with active visits

  • admit/transfer/discharge patients

  • take clinical notes

  • capture patient vitals

  • display patient summary and visit history.

  • capture allergies

  • Enter forms from the patient dashboard

The Admin UI Module is written using the UI framework (see resources), and some pages are written with Groovy Server Page technology being backed up by controllers while other pages are written using angular and communicating with the server via the REST API provided by the web services module. With the Admin UI Module, the user has access to the “Configure Metadata” app.
