Appointment reason

We have recently upgraded and staff are not happy that the appointment reason drop down has disappeared.

is there a way to get this back?

Re: Appointment reason

Not easily. The change was made to support practices that have too many appointment reasons to be useable in a drop down. You can input the first few characters and then press enter and it will automatically complete the text. This is typically faster than using a drop down.

If you really want the old behaviour, the presentation is determined by a file named LookupPropertyEditorFactory.properties, located in:

<TOMCAT_HOME>/webapps/openvpms/WEB-INF/lib/openvpms-web-workspaces-1.8.jar

The .jar can be opened with most zip utilities.

To revert to the old style, you would need to change this file to coment out lookup.visitReason* as follows:


lookup.diagnosis*             org.openvpms.web.component.im.lookup.SelectorLookupPropertyEditor
lookup.presentingComplaint*   org.openvpms.web.component.im.lookup.SelectorLookupPropertyEditor
#lookup.visitReason*           org.openvpms.web.component.im.lookup.SelectorLookupPropertyEditor

and then restart Tomcat.
