I am building a form for providers to click a button to place their orders. The buttons are working fine, but I would also like them to push to an observation term. Is there any way to connect each order button to an observation term? If not, then is there a way to get the whole form tied to one individual observation term? I'm trying to create it with a minimal amount of clicks.
Thanks

Sure.
In the connection type for the button don't use neworder. Use 'runprocess'. Then inside of a set of {} you can list multiple commands. In your case you want to use MEL_ADD_ORDER() for the order and OBSNOW() for the obs term.
For example:
{
MEL_ADD_ORDER("S", "Admin Hold Services to Billing", "Tdap >7 yrs (Adacel) ", "", "ICD10-Z23", "Encounter for immunization", "", "", "N", "", "")
OBSNOW("TDAPSTATUS","DONE")
}

Alternatively, if you wanted the entire contents of the form to push to an observation term, you can set the actual form property to output to a variable instead of the chart note. Then you can push the contents of the entire variable into an observation term. It's a very useful functionality within VFE. Keep in mind the 3000 character limit that the observation term has.
