Setting Up Your Clinic

Configure Your Clinic Settings

Before creating SOPs, you'll want to configure your clinic settings. This ensures your SOPs can be properly assigned and organized.

  1. Click on "Settings" in the navigation bar.
  2. Complete the General Information section with your clinic details.
  3. Optionally, add your clinic's branding elements (logo, colors) in the Branding section.
  4. Configure your Business Hours so the system knows when your clinic operates.
  5. Add Job Titles for your clinic (e.g., Veterinarian, Vet Tech, Receptionist, Kennel Assistant).

Tip: Always create job titles before adding staff members. Staff members will be assigned to these job titles.

  1. Add Team Members and assign each person to their appropriate job title. When you add a team member, they will receive an email with a 6-digit verification code to create their account—the same process you completed as a manager.
  2. Set up any Delegations you need for task reassignment workflows.
  3. Create Tags to categorize your SOPs and make them easier to search (e.g., Surgery, Pharmacy, Client Communication, Safety).
  4. Optionally, import starter templates by clicking Import Templates.
  5. Optionally, import existing SOPs from a spreadsheet. Download the CSV Template first, then match your spreadsheet columns to the supported headers: name, instructions, priority, required resources, and tags.

Setup Checklist

Before creating SOPs, ensure you have completed the following in order:

1
Job Titles created
2
Team Members added and assigned to job titles
3
Tags created for organizing SOPs

This order matters because staff members need to be assigned to existing job titles, and tags help organize your SOP library.
