luMedicalConditionType Flags Explained

Explains the purpose of DefaultFlag and ActiveFlag in the luMedicalConditionType table

Changes made in Synergetic Windows Application are reflected on the community portal (left side as appears in SynMain, right side as appears in Community Portal)

Default Flag - The default flag determines whether or not a medical condition persistently appears on a student record if they have the condition or not.
Default Flag Ticked	If student has the condition it will appear as a green tick	If the student doesn’t have the condition this will be shown with a grey cross.
Default Flag Not Ticked	If the student has the condition, it is shown with a green tick	If student doesn’t have the condition it will not appear on the list of conditions

ActiveFlag Not Ticked	If it is not selected, the condition will not appear in selection lists/drop-downs
ActiveFlag Ticked	If it is selected, the condition will be available for selection in lists/drop-downs
	Student has Anaphylaxis	Student does not have Anaphylaxis
Active flag - Determines whether a condition appears in the list of selectable conditions.

When to use the various options?

Active Flag Ticked / Default Flag ticked: If you would like parents to have the option to add the condition to a student via Community Portal

Active Flag Not Ticked / Default Flag ticked: If you would like parents who have a student with the specific condition to be able to edit medications etc, however, you don't want parents to have the option to add this as a new condition to students via Community Portal

Active Flag Not Ticked / Default Flag not ticked: If you don't want the specific condition to be selectable 

Active Flag Ticked / Default Flag not ticked: Default Flag overrides Active Flag therefore effect is same as Active Flag Not Ticked, Default Flag Not ticked scenario.

Difference between Active Flag and Default Flag

Default Flag:

When Default Flag is not ticked this means that the condition cannot be added to a student, even if the Active Flag is ticked.  

If ticked allows parents to add the condition to a student via Portal themselves, if not ticked condition can only be edited by parents who already have a student with the specific condition, or staff. 

Active Flag: 

If  Active Flag is not ticked, only parents that have a student with the condition already or staff can edit the condition. 

Note: Default Flag works independently of Active Flag, however, for Active Flag to work Default Flag must be ticked.
