Clients Group


Client Groups is a section from Brevity where you can group the clients with the same service at a time. You need to include the group services first to the client’s funding if the client is using the NDIS fund for the group service.


You can manage the client’s group list by going to the Clients then selecting the Group tab from the sub menu.

These are the topics on this page:



Adding Group Service

Before you can add the clients within the group, it is important that you need to link the group service to the client's funding first. If you don't link the service type to the funding, you cannot select the client in group service schedule.
