Review Part Categories and Parts
EasyRx includes the EasyRx Univeral Library of Parts and Appliances. The library includes over 600 different parts and appliances and is the foundation of creating a prescription. When a practice is sending a prescription to your lab, your customized version of part and appliances is displayed to the practice. We recommend reviewing the Parts and Appliances, doing the following:
- Review Part Categories, disabling Categories your lab does not offer
- Reviewing Parts, disabling Parts your lab does not offer
- Reviewing Appliances, disabling Appliances your lab does not offer
- Customizing Parts, like adding Alternate Part Names, your Lab Part Number
- Create Part Lookups
Category Manager
Go To Configure -- Category Manager to review Part Categories
The Category Manager displays all Categories, Sub Categories and parts assigned to each category
Review each Category by clicking the Parts link to display all parts assigned to the Category. If the Category is not something your lab offers, click reactivate to hide that Category.
- View shows the Category read-only
- Edit allows you to edit the Category.
From the Edit page, you can

Lookup | Lookup links to Part Option Lookup. A Part Option Lookup is a lookup list that is "global", allowing the list to be used on multiple parts. For example, build one look-up for "Full Cast" and use this list on multiple crowns. Go to Configure -- Part Option Lookups to setup Part Option Lookups. Go here to review a lookup on Part Option Lookups |
Copy
Copy copies the part, creating a duplicate of the part. You would use copy part when you want to create a new part, but graphically, the part can look like an existing part. An example is a crown. Graphically, crowns look the same and have the same tooth movements, but have different colors Use Copy part to create a new part, with a new name.

The Part Admin Interface displays images of all parts, allowing you to see each part. From this page, you can Deactivate, View, Edit and add Part Options from this page.
Part Option Lookups
Part Option Lookups are global lookups lists, which can be assigned to multiple parts. For example, you may create a Part Option Lookup for Bite Occlusion and link this lookup to all parts requiring information on Bite Occlusion. For more information, refer to this KB article: Part Option Lookups.
