Sec. 5, Immunization Rules

An immunization rule is a timetable of immunizations assigned to students according to their age group. The table shows immunization type, dose number, and recommended student age for each dose. Immunization rules are created in the Define Immunization Rules program to follow state-mandated guidelines and requirements. These rules are accessed by SIS 2000+'s Immunization program so that a student's immunization schedule can be printed and their immunization history can be tracked.

5.1 Open the Define Immunization Rules screen (Fig. 16)
Click on the Imm. Rules button in the Health module's main menu screen (or ALT+R on the keyboard).
