Getting Started with Your Clinic
First login, clinic profile setup, and initial configuration steps
Overview
When you first register on SehaFile, your clinic account starts in trial status. Before you can begin accepting patients and scheduling appointments, you need to complete your clinic profile. This ensures your invoices, prescriptions, and patient-facing pages display the correct information. The setup process takes about 5 minutes and covers your clinic identity, contact details, and licensing information.
Steps to Complete Clinic Setup
- Log in to your clinic dashboard — Open
clinic.sehafile.comin your browser. Enter the email and password you used during registration. On first login, the system will redirect you to the setup wizard automatically. - Enter clinic name (Arabic & English) — In the Clinic Identity section, fill in name_ar (required) and name_en (optional but recommended). The Arabic name appears on all official documents and prescriptions.
- Upload your clinic logo — Click the logo placeholder and select a square image (minimum 200x200px, PNG or WebP). This logo appears on printed prescriptions, invoices, and the online booking page.
- Select your specialty — Choose from the dropdown (e.g., General Practice, Dermatology, Dentistry, Cardiology). This determines which templates and drug suggestions appear in your system.
- Enter your license number — Input your Ministry of Health or Medical Syndicate license number. This is displayed on official documents and required for e-invoicing compliance.
- Add clinic address — Enter the full street address, select the governorate and city from the dropdown. Optionally set your map coordinates for the online booking page.
- Configure contact details — Add your clinic phone number (Egyptian format 01XXXXXXXXX), email address, and optional website URL.
- Set default consultation fee — Enter the standard consultation fee in EGP. This serves as the default when creating new appointments but can be overridden per doctor or service.
- Save and continue — Click Save Clinic Profile. You will be redirected to the dashboard where you can begin adding staff, patients, and configuring additional settings.
