Multi-orders are buttons that open the mini scratch pad or order form for the order type you select. Multi-orders give the provider completely free and quick access to any order of the selected type. As an example, this sort of access may be necessary if medications are likely to be needed, but there isn't one drug or a particular set of meds that is appropriate for the specific situation the template addresses. Keep in mind, however, that you won't be filling out any part of a multi-order in advance for the provider, which increases the amount of time he or she will have to take to write the orders.
The multi-orders button is always labeled "Order" regardless of the order type it invokes. Because of this, multi-orders come with captions to allow you to describe the orders available.
