	Questionnaires The Questionnaire module allows for the capture and calculation of scores from patient responses, which can be viewed at any point.
	Custom Modules The Custom Module add-on allows for the creation of site specific programs or macros that perform extra validation or automate certain tasks (e.g. validating a UK NHS number has been entered correctly, defining rules for automatic authorisation, etc).
	Anticoagulation Inbound INR Interface The Anticoagulation Inbound INR Interface Module allows for INR results to be imported into the Anticoagulation application area via the DAWN Integration Engine.
	Anticoagulation Inbound Non-INR Test Results Interface The Anticoagulation Inbound Non-INR Test Results Interface Module allows for non-INR test results (e.g. haematocrit, platelets, creatinine) to be imported into the Anticoagulation application area via the DAWN Integration Engine for viewing purposes only.
	Anticoagulation Chronic Disease Monitoring Inbound Test Results Interface The Chronic Disease Monitoring Inbound Test Results Interface Module allows for test results (e.g. hematocrit, platelets, creatinine) to be imported into the Chronic Disease Monitoring application areas via the DAWN Integration Engine. Where applicable, patient intervention records will be updated accordingly and any alerting or trending processing will be performed.
