    Question for the Community: Naming/Wording: What do you call a "Detention Stay"

    Hey All,

    We are building a new feature in CourtStream and we need your help. Different organizations sometimes use different lingo, but in other cases they use similar wording. We have a question about how you typically refer to a "Detention Stay". We are defining a "detention stay" (or whatever you may call it) as the Date Range/Period from when they were Admitted/Intake to the day they were Discharged/Released. So a client could have one or more "Detention Stays".

    The feature we are building is the new "BizStream Form Builder". One of the options of Form Builder is to add "auto-text". So you will see a list of "auto-text" fields and we need to make sure they are named clearly so you know what they are doing. Here is a list of 4 'auto-text" fields:
     - ClientName                  - Ex: John Doe
     - ClientDateOfBirth         - Ex: 08/07/1994
     - ClientDetentionStay   - Ex: 01/20/2009 to 02/12/2009
     - CurrentUsername       -  Ex: mschmidt

     So anyways, now that you know what we are talking about. Please answer the poll below to help us out.
