Connected People Types

The Connected People Types preference is used to record a list of connected people types in the system. These are found when adding a connected person to a patient. The choice of values are selected using an autocomplete or dropdown list.

The default build does not have this field, so the example below shows where it would usually appear (between Contact Details and Pedigree Numbers).
