An overview of the hospital's counters and of everyone who can bill, with what they bill, their discount right, void right and cash register flag.

Billing Setup answers two questions on one page: which counters the hospital has, and who may bill what. It is a review page; you change the settings on the screens it links to.

Common questions

A cashier sees "nothing yet — ask an administrator" on the counter. Their role has no billing right, or their Where they take money leaves out every department. Fix it in Users & Roles.
