Creating a Chart Structure
To set up the Form Manager and Create a Chart for CFTSS services, complete the following:

- Select the Program (Left side).
- Click on the Set Active button to create the first active chart structure (if there is already an active chart structure move to the next step).

Copying a Chart Structure
Instead of recreating the same chart for each CFTSS program you have there is built-in functionality that allows you to copy a created chart structure. You can only copy the chart structure that is one version prior to the active chart structure (Ex. If your active chart structure is #4 then you can only copy #3). Complete the following steps to copy a chart structure in one program to another program.
- Select the Program you want to copy the active chart from.
- Duplicate the Active Chart Structure in order to copy it.
- Click Design to open the active chart structure.
- Click Set Active to create a new version of the chart structure.
- Exit the Chart Structure Designer.
- Click Design to open the active chart structure.
- Now that you have two versions of the same chart structure, right-click on the version that does not have (Design) next to it (the two versions should have the same date and time stamp).
- Select a Program to copy the chart structure to.
- You will receive a pop-up saying “This action will overwrite the current Design chart structure for (Program)! Do you wish to continue?”, click Yes.
- You will see Chart Structure copied successfully in the bottom right corner of Form Manager.
- You will see Chart Structure copied successfully in the bottom right corner of Form Manager.
- Repeat steps 3 and 5 for every program you wish to copy the chart structure to.
