Hi,

Our wishlist (in rough order) is:

1) Price Batch Update - Think about home much time is spent individually updating item prices... In addition for us we would like to increase prices over specific periods (e.g. a public holiday) and then drop back to normal levels a few days later. This is basically impossible to do with the current system. I thing this one would pay for itself many times over for most practices in very little time at all. Once a year price update -> Easy!1) https://openvpms.atlassian.net/browse/OVPMS-975 - Follow Up Work Lists.

2) Email Address Default Improvements - Mentioned in my last post. Not yet costed.

3) Customer Patient Date Sort Order Issue - We add wildlife and strays into Open. We accumulate large numbers of patients in these files. Sorting and finding patients is a major issue. This would make it much easier to sort by date of admission/entry.

4) http://www.openvpms.org/project/allow-switching-payment-type-finalised-invoices - As long as administrator controlled. Perhaps password protect on each change so if someone has left an administrator account open this can't be done by a random staff member.

5) Scrolling Filter Headers

We will contribute to at least the first four if there is sufficient interest to get these across the line.

Firstly let me start by saying that I think adding or improving this area of Openvpms is required in 1.7 for 2 reasons...

1. The existing implementation doesnt really work beyond preventing logins.

see my previous posts.

2.  Queensland health is currently on a ramage through vet clinics to "clean up".  They want to stop vet nurse dispensing of drugs, stop vet nurses placing drug orders (of any sort).   To manage this electronically is actually a breach of the Drug and Poisons act in Queensland.   Provet has managed to get some sort of provisonal approval for Eorder. but it needs to be set up so only vets can send orders.  In effect this means to have OpenVpms legitimized we need to ensure we can manage roles and tasks effectively.

I would envisage the system simplyfying the existing system as well as making it functional - Ie it produces a usable error explaining how to adjust a users security if they cannot perform a task they attempt...

Also if a user as CREATE priv they must have a save priv.  no point otherwise. At the moment these sorts of things are not well managed or explained.

Hi Everyone,

A number of customers are using external marketing companies to send reminder letters.  Currently they run a custom report to get an export list of specific reminder types and then send this to the external marketing company.  They then need to somehow process these reminders in OpenVPMS, typically by setting the specific reminder types and count to list only.  

Ideally it would be better to to able to nominate specific reminder type types and counts for export (Export tick box maybe) and during reminder processing (Send All) a file would be generated and downloaded to the browser for the user to save and send to the marketing company.  This way export and list reminders would be separated.

I think one or more of these marketing companies may be willing to sponsor this development.

Cheers Tony

We would like number 21, fixed headers that do not scroll. It is very time consuming to have to scroll down a page, then back up to the top to get to the next page when looking through a long history.

Not sure if others find this a problem?

A few wishes

- easier localization between versions

- automatic  function for sending SMS and or email when clients book an appointment and 24 hours before to remind(with enable/disable on customer level).

- automatic email of PDF invoice (enable/disable on customer level)

- pricelist report with cost and sales price (to check for mistakes)

- report with sales totals of products and/or productgroups over time (including revenue and sales-cost)

- performing clinician and payment type on invoices

Hi, 

I would like to see OK changed to PRINT, as in my head OK means OK I've finished or want to move on and Print means print, (often print large documents instead to hitting cancel I hit OK.)

Thanks

I have a suggestion in relation to seaching clients, patients or products. Currently, we can utilise the check box to 'Include Deactivated' client/patient/product when performing a search. However, there is no way to tell which is an active vs deactivated item when the list comes up. Users either know what they are looking for specifically (from memory) or have to click into the item to verify its status (whether Active or not). It would make more sense if the provision of a mark/sign (like an asterisk) next to the client/patient/item id or an addition column field to highlight the deactivated items.

Would it be a difficult task to incoporate this function? We would be very happy to contribute if it makes its way to become a project :)

Regards,

Anthony (ActiVet)

What quite a number of my customers would like changed is a simpler way to add Microchip details when entering new patients as well as billing Microchip products.  I think this would involve.

1.  Marking specific products as Microchip and when billed prompt for Microchip number and save as Microchip identity. Thsi may be able to be integrated as an update rather than a specific Microchip check box field.

2.  Add a Microchip field in the patient display which displays the most recent Microchip identity for the patient or , if none and a Microchip number entered adds the entered Microchip number as an identity.
