Single Doctor

For a clinic with one consultant. The Doctors list, the doctor filter on every report and the doctor-wise revenue sheets are hidden, because in a one-doctor practice they all answer the same question with the same name. Everything else works exactly as it does in a hospital.

Switch: Settings > Hospital > Single Doctor.

Nothing is lost

This only decides what is shown. The doctor is still recorded on every visit, every admission and every prescription exactly as before, so the day a second consultant joins, switching this off brings the list, the filters and the doctor-wise sheets back with all the history already in them.

That is the whole reason it is a display switch rather than a different way of storing a visit: a clinic that grows should not have to re-key a year of records to find out what each doctor earned.

What it hides

Hidden	Because
The Doctors list	A master screen for picking between one thing.
The doctor filter on reports	Every row has the same answer in it.
Doctor-wise Revenue	It would be the department revenue with one row.

The OPD register, consultations, dues, the pharmacy and - where it is on - the whole inpatient half are untouched.

Who it suits

A one-way door it is not: the switch can be flipped back the day the practice grows, and the history is already there.

Setting it up

Switch it on in Settings > Hospital. Nothing else to do - there is no master to fill in and nothing to migrate. If the clinic already has more than one doctor on its books, leave it off; hiding the list would not remove them, only the ability to tell them apart on a report.
