Multi-level client catalogue
It is a structured archive of client cards and assessments.
Due to the new option of multilevel arrangement of client cards and assessments, it is now possible to group the cards by folders. For example, you can put all the cards created at one particular day, month, year or event into one folder.
It is also possible to open several cards at one time, which allows browsing the list of all the assessments of each client you choose.
Drag several cards or folders into a separate root folder, or mass delete the files.
To do this, select the desired files and drag them to the folder or the Recycle bin accordingly.
Ctrl + click – selects single folder, client card or assessment. To select several files, hold Ctrl and click the desired files.
Shift + click – multiple selection of folders/cards/assessments. Hold Shift, click the first and the last file in the list.

Deleting the files – after selecting one or several files, press Delete button to send them to the Recycle bin.
Recycle bin

A cross-client data comparison in the module "Dynamics"
The software allows comparing several assessments in a selected client’s card to assess the dynamics of changes in his condition, and also comparing assessments of different clients to identify differences.
Adding a new client
It can be done in several ways:
- Pressing the icon New Client in the main menu
- Choosing the command Clients – New client in the top menu
- Right-clicking in any area in the catalogue and selecting the command from the context menu: New client
- Press a key combination CTRL + ALT + P
Then the catalogue will show a “New client” card highlighted in blue. The empty Information tab will be displayed to the right for you to fill in.
The ID field displays the client card in the list to the left.
Note: If Privacy law is applicable in your country, do not enter a client’s full name in the ID field to ensure privacy.
The Full name field allows you to fill in the information in the Results and Report tabs automatically.
Gender, Date of birth, Height, Weight fields are used by the software to calculate many integral indexes.
The remaining fields such as E-mail, Address, Phone are optional.
The software allows you to store the history of changes in the anthropometric data in the client card. If necessary, adjust the anthropometric data (client’s height and/or weight) before starting the assessment. The new data will then be saved in the client’s assessment file and the indices will be calculated accordingly. Press the Height or Weight mark in the client card to see the graphic representation of changes in the anthropometric data.
The Anamnesis field allows you to record the case history of your client.
In addition, you can add your client’s photo to the card by clicking on Add a photo. A photo can be taken using a computer webcam or uploaded from your computer or phone. If it was added earlier, you can replace it by clicking on the existing photo.
You can also add files to the client card by clicking on the + icon. Select the file and it will be copied to the client card. Later you can open it with a double click from the list in the card.
Menu point Clients – Data export allows exporting all clients’ catalog. All information (height, weight, email etc.) will be saved in Excel table.
Contraindications
The tab is designed to enter information about a client's health traits identified during history taking, including disease history, hereditary factors, and allergic reactions.
It is located to the right of the Information tab.
Select a pathology in the Nosological system filter, mark the food products or herbs the client is allergic to, and also choose conditions such as gluten and lactose intolerance.
For example, if you select hypertension from the list of diseases, then the software will adjust the recommendations in the client-specific manner, i.e. it will exclude the herbs with hypertensive effect from the recommendations. If gluten intolerance is selected, then wheat-containing foods will not be featured in the recommendation list of the Diet software module.
