Core concepts
The handful of ideas that make the whole app make sense. Read this once.
decavet has a lot of screens, but only a few core ideas. Once these click, everything else is just detail. This section explains them in plain language, with real examples — no database jargon.
The big picture
- How everything connects — one barn call, followed all the way from a phone call to a paid invoice. The best place to start.
The objects, one at a time
- Contacts explained — why owners, barns, trainers, and suppliers all live in one place.
- Patients explained — animals, and how they connect to the people who own and care for them.
- Appointments vs visits — the single most important distinction in the app.
- How billing works — how the work you record turns into invoices and payments.
