Features in this Release

The Email Document Loader is a scheduled job that loads mail attachments from emails to existing patient Investigations.

Attachments are associated with Investigations by parsing their identifier from the attachment file name.

The End Period job performs end-of-period processing for all customers.

This can be used in place of the manual End Period process in Reporting - Debtors.

The Import Laboratory Test Data window is used to import laboratory test data for offline laboratory providers.

This can be used to:

  • create and update the laboratory tests for a provider
  • update the unit prices for products that use the tests

A report is now included to list sales of S8 products.
