Progress Notes Filters Progress notes can be filtered by Date Range, Code and Session Type. One or more filters can be used at a time.

The dates must be in a valid format (MM/DD/YYYY) for the filter to function. A blank box in the filter field will act as a boundless filter, for example if the there was a date in the first field of 01/01/2005 and not a date in the second, it would display all notes for the client on and after 01/01/2005. Code Filter: Allows for ease of finding notes by specific code. Each time a letter is typed the filter will run and filter down the list further.
