Can I set up a template for a Chief Complaint that isn’t listed in Docpad?

Docpad includes many hundreds of Chief Complaints listed by medical terminology and lay terms.  However in certain circumstances, a generic template would be more useful for special circumstances or for an unlisted complaint.  Using a Generic Template will allow flexibility needed.

Here's how to use a Generic Template:

Select a patient.
Select the CC tab for Chief Complaint.
In the same box to the right above the homunculus, select Generic Template.
Select the appropriate template from those listed: 
   Common
      General counseling and advice
      Normal test results review
   Other
      Generic
      Generic, neuro

Here's a link to a video that explains how to use a Generic Template:  https://youtu.be/kvtPxeKf5Fg
